The Emergence of ‘Extremism’
The idea that the expression of radical beliefs is a predictor to future acts of political violence has been a central tenet of counter-extremism over the last two decades. Not only has this imposed a duty upon doctors, lecturers and teachers to inform on the radical beliefs of their patients and students but, as this book argues, it is also a fundamentally flawed concept.

Some of the practices adopted by these young people are …

Towards an ethnography of learning
In this paper we look at the educational assumptions that underlie the notion of learning from experience and at the specific circumstance of teaching (participatory) action research in the context of higher education. We take the view that ‘learning from experience’ is not merely a psychological mechanism, but a process of socialisation of its own kind. By first looking at the ‘basic understandings’ of social situations and learning cultures we …

The New Left had arisen in response to Stalinis…
