| dc.description.abstract | This article explores the transformative potential of post-structuralist theories in rethinking global education policies and comparative education practices. It critically examines the power dynamics underlying hegemonic narratives in education and highlights the ways in which these narratives marginalize local knowledge systems and reinforce inequalities. Using Foucault's notions of regimes of truth and Deleuze and Guattari's rhizomatic learning, the article demonstrates how post-structuralist frameworks challenge normative assumptions and propose alternative models based on equity, inclusion, and diversity. Local adaptations, counter-narratives, and strategies of resistance are analyzed as key mechanisms for negotiating and transforming global education policies in specific cultural and social contexts. The discussion emphasizes the importance of embracing epistemological pluralism and participatory governance to promote more equitable and inclusive educational practices. Concluding with directions for the future, the article underlines the relevance of post-structuralist approaches for advancing critical research and practice in comparative education. | |
