Can teachers see Australia's new caste-ism? <em>TEACH Journal of Christian Education, 13</em>(2), 8-12. doi:10.55254/1835-1492.1408https://doi.org/10.55254/1835-1492.1408https://research.avondale.edu.au/handle/123456789/15543061<p>We live in a world of social change. Within that world, Christian teachers are used to thinking of all people as made in the Image of God. That assumption has often meant practising a deep respect for all people. This respect has similarly extended to how Christians understand relationships in the classroom. Yet there are competing narratives about the design and purpose of life within our Western world. Part of this competition of ideas is caught up in implications that come from how we view human beings as persons. This article proposes that one of these new Australian alternatives to Christian ways of viewing life is creating an unstated but real caste system amongst so-called different kinds of persons.</p>en-usSocietyCasteEducationAustraliaJournal Article
