“…This body of theory and research chimes with a recent 'care' turn within education more broadly (Baines, 2013;Vincent, 2016), and theatre and drama education in particular (Rabin, 2009;Gallagher, 2015;Gallagher et al, 2018Gallagher et al, , 2020Grove O'Grady, 2020;Thomson & Fisher, 2020). Within this focus, the affective and interpersonal elements of educational practice and their social and emancipatory implications are forefronted.…”

This article, understanding populism as an essentially undemocratic ideology, argues that the prosocial theatre education approach of ensemble pedagogy can offer a model of educational practice which counters these anti-democratic rhetorics by creating a shared space for the enactment of empathetic discourse. Via an ethnography of the UK Shakespeare Schools Foundation festival project, the notion of the theatre education ensemble 'family' as a model of civic caring is offered as an alternative, feminist 'care perspective' on civic and political rhetorics, in contrast to the patriarchal 'justice perspectives' which facilitate the reductive anti-democratic rhetorics of populism. Thus, this article concludes that ensemble approaches to theatre education, viewed through this feminist pedagogy lens, hold rich potential for developing learners' capacity to resist populism and act in socially hopeful ways.

A recent government report in British Columbia on anti-Indigenous racism in health care calls into question the claim that regulating health care professionals protects the public and ensures a high standard of professional, ethical care. Licensure and regulation have long been debated in social work with strong advocates on each side. The first section of this article revisits the historical and contemporary pro-registration and pro-inclusion arguments. Drawing on publicly available documents central to licensure and regulation in BC, the article then draws on two policy analysis frameworks, namely Indigenous Intersectional-Based Policy Analysis and Bacchi’s framework to explore “what is the problem represented to be” and who is positioned as problematic and erased or delegitimized within these processes. The analysis shows that the regulation debate is a series of practices of power that frame which issues will be “raised and which will not be discussed” such as “harm” and “protection”, while simultaneously eclipsing Indigenous and other non-dominant cultural perspectives and concerns. Our analysis further suggests that mandatory registration constructs the problems facing social workers in depoliticized and narrow ways that do not extend social justice, reconciliation, or decolonization, and require a serious rethink at this moment of change and challenge.
