Acknowledgments
This article has had a long gestation; I presented an almost entirely different version of it at the Crossroads conference in Hong Kong (2010), and I am grateful to Catherine Driscoll and Anna Hickey-Moody for their comments on that earlier paper. That version also was circulated as part of a reading group at Deakin University led by Barbara Kamler, and I thank her and my Deakin colleagues for their thoughts on that different version. I thank the anonymous reviewers and Anna Hickey-Moody for providing critical engagement with earlier versions of this piece as I have revised it for publication. I would also like to thank Baden Offord, Matthew D’Ippolito, Pat Woods, and everyone at The Review of Education, Pedagogy & Cultural Studies.
