ABSTRACT

In this conceptual paper, we propose that a theorization of space has the potential to advance the scope of research methods in educational administration and leadership. In particular, we argue for the incorporation of the notion of ‘spatial justice’ to the research, analysis, and practice of educational administration and leadership in educational organizations and communities. Our guiding questions are: a) How can spatial theorizing inform research in educational administration and leadership? and, b) How can the idea of spatial justice be incorporated into the analytical repertoire of researchers in educational administration and leadership? While we recognize that the preoccupation for equity and social justice is central to the field of educational leadership, we believe that the scope of research in this field could be further expanded by incorporating a spatial justice perspective.

摘要

在这篇概念性论文中，我们提出空间理论化有可能扩大教育管理和领导力研究方法的范围。特别是，我们主张将“空间正义”的概念纳入教育组织和社区的教育管理和领导的研究、分析和实践中。我们的指导性问题是：a) 空间理论如何为教育管理和领导力研究提供信息？b) 如何将空间正义的理念纳入教育管理和领导研究人员的分析手段中？虽然我们认识到对公平和社会正义的关注是教育领导力领域的核心，
