PART I. The Journey/al and Reflections -- Chapter 1. The Story from Start to Finish -- Chapter 2. Re-Theorising and Re-Problematizing Conflict from A Posthumanist Stance: Meaning, Truth, and Understanding in a Posthumanist World -- PART II: Dimensions of Conflict -- Chapter 3. The International School: Taking Stock of a World 'Commodity'-Leadership and Management -- Chapter 3. The Apparatuses of Conflict -- Chapter 5. The Dark Side: Teacher Emotions and their Affect/Effect on Conflict -- Chapter 6. Concluding on a More Optimistic Note.

This book examines how injustice based on social positioning is performed within the context of international schools. Drawing on the lived experiences of an international school teacher, it proposes and explores the notion that teachers, in being constituted and positioned as subordinate within the hierarchy that is the international school, leads to their being wronged on three counts: epistemically for being wrongfully mistrusted; ethically for being wrongfully excluded; and ontologically for being wrongfully positioned as a lesser human being. The book addresses the dearth of research currently available on conflict in international schools and how conflict between teachers and administrators is dealt with in and by such institutions. It will be valuable reading for students and teachers of education and sociology, and those interested in the workings of international schools.
