When I stumbled upstairs (literally) to the spaces of educational research
just after the middle of the 1980s there was already this deconstruction of
decontextualization going on. Now that it re-surfaces on the xmca, it
strikes me: there must be a background to these contextualizing debates
where decontextualization (not stuff-in-context) was the glorified concept.
To me, from here, it just seems to be a strange and contorted way of
talking about some contexts in the negative.
Well, oh, perhaps I'm not quite as ignorant as that sounds, but....
