Expansive Learning for Enacting Utopias: Theoretical and Practical Advances

Abstract

This symposium brings together leading scholars from four continents to explore the potential of expansive learning in enacting utopias, understood as practical alternatives to the logic of profit and exploitation.By drawing on the theoretical framework of cultural-historical activity theory (CHAT), the symposium highlights the role of expansive learning in addressing societal challenges and fostering social change.The contributions presented in this symposium showcase a diverse range of case studies, including community-based initiatives, formative interventions, and social movements.These studies demonstrate how expansive learning can be used to challenge the status quo, enact alternative futures, and create more just and equitable societies.
