Beyond Answers and Bridges
摘要
This chapter critiques the repetitive, slogan-driven nature of mainstream ICER, arguing that it prioritises comfort over transformative engagement. The author introduces a set of disruptive concepts including ideoclusionalism, the eternitangle and sociuspectrum, designed to question and disrupt complacency and expose the field’s unexamined contradictions. These terms reframe interculturality not as a problem to be solved with neat answers or bridges but as an unending, complex process of becoming that demands perpetual self-critique, ethical responsiveness and a willingness to dwell in uncertainty. The chapter advocates for replacing safe, sanctioned practices with a more courageous, discomforting praxis rooted in deep questioning and a critical awareness of power in both research and education.
