Using recontextualisation theory, the author examines the relations between educational governance, social interests and cultural epistemology as they pertain specifically to symbolic constructs. In the aftermath of September 11 2001, the teaching of Islam has assumed geopolitical significance, coming under close scrutiny internationally. Much of this attention has been directed at madrasas in Muslim countries, yet Islam in schooling contexts in the West has remained a blind-spot. In the UK, heightened anxieties about "home-grown" terrorists point to the need for a better understanding of Islam in both state and faith schools. Shiraz Thobani explores the role played by national and local policies and pedagogic practices in the production of school-based Islam in a secular, liberal context and makes an important contribution to the sociology of the curriculum and the study of religious education."--Provided by publisher.IslamStudy and teachingGreat BritainEducationCurriculaGreat BritainEducation and stateGreat BritainCurriculum planning & developmentbicsscElectronic books.CurriculumPolicy and PoliticsReligion, Faith and SpiritualityTeaching Methods and MaterialsIslamStudy and teachingEducationCurriculaEducation and stateCurriculum planning & development297.07/041Thobani Shiraz917469UWOCaBNVSLCaBNVSLBOOK9910459863403321Islam in the school curriculum2057118UNINA
