N2 - Place pedagogy change is a book that explores new ways of learning and teaching about place. We are not interested in passing on a fixed body of knowledge about place, but in developing ways of knowing that are emergent in, and responsive to, particular places. We are interested in ways of knowing that change the knower— that generate a critique of existing knowledges and practices in such a way that they open up the possibility of transformation and change. We explore how one might come to know oneself differently by focussing not on one’s individualised self whose identity is constructed in its separation from others and from place, but on oneself in relation to those others, including human, non-human and earth others, who make up the places we live in.
