Building capacity for civic learning and engagement: An emerging infrastructure in the academic arts and humanities in the United States
American higher education has always articulated a civic mission as part of its purpose: colleges and universities educate students for life in a democratic society and provide that society with citizens who ensure that it thrives in turn. This essay maps the development of a national infrastructure for civic learning and engagement in American higher education, with a focus on the mid-1980s onward, when—after a period of relative eclipse—this wo…
The role of the arts and humanities in civic learning and engagement: The US debate
Over the past few years, a series of linked calls to action have urged US institutions of higher education to give greater attention to civic learning and engagement as central outcomes of a liberal education (Heiland and Huber, 2014). The purpose of this forum is to map out how this current spate of calls for civic learning and engagement in the US is being (or can be) answered by the arts and humanities in higher education, and how these discip…

Placing Theory in the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning
As the scholarship of teaching and learning matures as a field, the place of theory has garnered growing attention. Educational research and the learning sciences can certainly contribute, but professors who view their classrooms as sites for inquiry draw from a wide range and variety of theoretical foundations. With their diverse efforts in view, we ask: Which (and whose) theories are most relevant? What is the role of theory in different (disci…

Anthropology and the Educational ‘Trading Zone’: Disciplinarity, pedagogy and professionalism
This article suggests that the notion of an educational ‘trading zone’ is an analytically helpful way of describing a space in which ideas about learning and teaching are shared within and between disciplines. Drawing on our knowledge of anthropology and the Humanities, we suggest three possible reasons for the limited development of such zones within academia in the UK and US. The first is the relatively low status of education as a discipline, …
The Movement to Recognise and Reward Different Kinds of Scholarly Work
Higher education in the US stands out for its size and variety, and its complex mix of public and private finance and control. Although this situation makes it hard to 'see' and 'name' the sources of systemic change, academic life in the US is showing the same signs of neoliberal 'market penetration' as elsewhere. One way in which educators in the US are attempting to take some control is through a movement to recognise and reward different kinds…

Policy Review Section
In this issue of the Policy Review Section, Alan Williams, Gareth Shaw and Martin Huber of the Department of Geography, University of Exeter, examine the extent to which local authorities in the UK are utilizing the promotion of the arts in their local economic development strategies. They consider in particular whether there are any systematic regional or urban rural variations in the application of such policies. In the second article, Stephen …

Constituting the Church: Catholic missionaries on the Sepik frontier
Over the years, Catholic missionaries of the Society of the Divine Word (SVD) in the Sepik region of Papua New Guinea have developed special ways of supporting their mission economically, of forming their own community, and of ministry. Through an examination of three successive periods in mission history, I attempt to understand SVD practice in terms of the tension between local imperatives and metropolitan ideals
