Abstract
* The ecological predicament is of universal significance requiring urgent ‘focalisation’ by educational theorists and practitioners. If ever the term ‘grounded theory’ is to have a literal meaning, it has to do with the future of our planet and its inhabitants. The following article strikes beyond the bounds of current educational concerns and is an attempt at setting a crucial agenda so curiously neglected by socio‐cultural theorists of education. The global situation, and possible educational responses to it, challenge and transcend any contemporary educational scholasticism. We hope that this article will begin a new and vitally important discourse. — Ed.Keywords
