Religious Education in Malawi and Ghana offers valuable insights into the complexities and opportunities of inclusive approaches to Religious Education (RE). Through comprehensive analysis, it sheds light on how RE in these countries engages with religious pluralization, presenting a compelling argument for re-evaluating current approaches in conceptualization, curriculum design, and delivery.
The book highlights the pervasive tradition of selection, involving exclusion and inclusion of religion in RE, which leads to misrepresentation and misclusion of non-normative religions. It emphasizes the need to avoid perpetuating the continued legitimization of selected religions while also recognizing the delegitimization of the religious 'other' as a result of misrepresentation and misclusion.
Drawing inspiration from Bratens methodology for comparative studies in RE, the book employs two qualitative studies from Malawi and Ghana to illustrate the widespread issues of religious misclusion in RE. This research provides valuable insights into the challenges faced by educators and policymakers in promoting inclusive and equitable education for all students, regardless of their religious backgrounds.
The book is of immense interest to academics, scholars, and postgraduate students in the fields of RE, African education, educational policy, international education, and comparative education. It offers valuable perspectives and contributes to the ongoing discourse on the role of RE in fostering religious understanding, tolerance, and social cohesion in diverse societies.
