Abstract

This article conceptualizes a theoretical framework for Global Citizenship Education (GCE), the meta-critical. Meta-critical GCE is conceived in this study as a critical pedagogy oriented to prioritize value-pluralism. By emphasizing critical pedagogy, I examine meta-critical GCE as a pedagogical approach which has the potential to go beyond developing students’ basic sense of interconnectedness and broadening their cultural horizons, important as they are, to critically and reflectively locating the discourse in the context of globalization. The notion of value-pluralism is that there are multiple forms of knowledge and values that are important for student development, yet conflicting in their shared space. The robust form of value-pluralism I put forward in my proposed meta-critical framework for GCE moves from compatibility as a possibility to the various types of critical networks and diverse GCE ethical systems that are engaged with each other. In a meta-critical GCE educators can critically engage with the four GCE positions I examine herewith: neoliberal; humanistic; transformative; and critical. All these theories of GCE are categorized into one of four orientations: economic, individualistic, critical and meta. If it is developed further, the meta-critical framework could possibly be applied through research to evaluate the complexities of teaching/learning processes required by GCE.
