Chapter 5 - Conclusions 5.1 Introduction
5.6 Final Thoughts
The domination of neo-liberal socio-political discourse in today’s society has resulted in social policy making that has bought increased socio-economic inequality. At the same time university research has been placed under tighter political control, which has made it difficult to voice alternative points of view. I believe that this can lead to situations of questionable policy setting. One such policy was Troops to Teachers where the military was positioned as a disciplining counter to out of control working-class masculinities. This approach is flawed, built on misrecognition of the issues involved and in the worst case could be detrimental to building successful learning cultures. This is not to say, at an individual level, that ex-military do not make great teachers – my research has presented examples of where personnel from the armed forces have made very successful transitions into teaching and have bought with them great skill and commitment to the profession.
The policy has left the military positioned within a contested discourse and this has politicized the positions of many good people that aspire to careers within teaching on retirement from the armed forces. It was the ideological and generalized nature of the policy that is in question and this research suggests the policy needs to be reappraised. This research sheds new light on the issues regarding the Employment of Ex-Military as Teachers and provides new understanding within the arguments in order to counter the dominant discourse regarding this and other such policies. The idea of having a specific policy whose purpose is to introduce an objectified and generalized hegemonic masculinity into the classroom is flawed, as masculine identities and cultures can produce relational behaviours that lead to the domination or subordination of feminised others.
This has been a personally difficult journey for me as the research has challenged my own illusio. My own life story has been dependent on the military and I owe my personal success to its culture and values. I cannot, however, ignore the literature or the data that I have been immersed in over the past five years, as the process has made me reflect on my own habitus and the hegemonic masculine nature of western society and the military that bases its fundamental beliefs on highly masculine norms.
It is my belief that this must change; the modern world is a complex place and the
dominance of masculine thinking alone is not equipped to deal with the uncertainty and ambiguity of the future. We must have diversity of voice within our societies, our organisations must reflect the societies they serve and we must embrace diversity in our schools so that we can equip ourselves, and our children, for the challenges ahead.
