Abstract

Abstract: This "in process" Conclusion to the Special Issue (SI) "Global politics of knowledge production in EER: 'New' theory and North-South representations" (The Journal of Environmental Education) aims to highlight relevant issues and acknowledged limitations and silences from the sample of critiques presented in the SI, all built from a pre-elaborated research agenda and methodological framework for reviewing/revisiting, and possibly de and reconstructing of "new" and "post" (theory). The formulated critique is presented as a prelude to shedding much more critical, praxical, conceptual and empirical "light" on discussing and challenging certain ideas, or ideals, or illusions in environmental education research. Praxis remains to be a notable (epistemological; methodological; pedagogical) limitation, as such, a prominent outstanding challenge.
