Theory holds the capacity to help educators see the world differently, challenge problematic assumptions and practices that cultivate harm, and illuminate pathways towards access, equity, justice, joy, and love. While it is easy to underestimate the role of theory in such pursuits throughout social studies education, this book shows that theory is always-already present in all productions of teaching and learning. In this collection, well-established scholars highlight a broad range of theories that are currently being used to alter the landscape of social studies instruction. Important to these efforts is the position that theory does not exist in a vacuum but rather is the reflection of a certain set of concepts and the relationship that one holds to those ideas. Taking this further, each chapter author employs storytelling as a means to share their personal history and unpack how they came to understand their selected theoretical topic. They address a breadth of concepts, such as Black feminism, psychoanalysis, racial capitalism, settler colonialism, sustainability, and technoskepticism. Book Features:The only resource of its kind that pairs storying with a far-reaching range of theories actively being used by scholars in the field of social studies education and research.Brief chapters, arranged alphabetically by concept, provide structure while also staying true to the book's framing of theory as being curious, fragmented, nomadic, and discursive.Embedded connections within each chapter meant to help readers understand the relational and entangled nature of theory.

Minerals and metals underpin our everyday existence, woven into the creation of nearly all consumer products. Yet the extraction process of ripping them from the earth fuels often toxic global geopolitical relationships, colonization, and conflict. Despite their fundamental importance, these materials are too often unseen, unappreciated, and unnoticed. This lack of awareness occludes critical opportunities for researchers, educators, and students to engage with the complex relationships between people, products, and the environment.Spatial Woundings: Entanglements of Minings, Metals, and Extractions explores how extractivist logics continue to cultivate devastation, plunder, and ecological precarity, focusing on the concept of spatial wounding—the myriad ways landscapes and living systems are subjected to the violence of extraction. This damage is comprehensive, encompassing alterations to the physical landscape as well as injury inflicted upon people, animals, plants, and atmospheres.Featuring a collection of international scholars, this urgent book surveys the contours of these devastating outcomes alongside crucial efforts to resist the logics that perpetuate them, ultimately reimagining the role of metals and extraction in cultural, popular, and social contexts. The volume is structured in three sections: Part I details historical experiences and intimate stories of spatial wounding; Part II offers analytical engagements with mining as a metaphor in media and technology; and Part III considers the broader empires, extraction, and more-than-human damage, addressing colonial legacies and anticolonial ethics in resource governance.
