Yet, despite certain standardizing and globalizing policies, the 'upbringing' component of state monitored formal schooling in Egypt serves as a way of ensuring that indigenous cultural aspects, which include the transmission of specifically Islamic tenets and codes of morality, are incorporated into national, and tacitly 'secular' education programs. Adults involved in the educational field consider it squarely within their right - if not duty- to enter into the domain of students' moral upbringing. Through a host of 'morality' policies at schools such as religion and morality classes, sex segregation, surveillance of youth behavior in and outside schools, enforcing dress codes and discouraging music and sports, adults try to guide youth towards what they consider acceptable moral behavior within the context of a Muslim, Arab society. This paper, based on extended ethnographic investigations into four Egyptian schools, will consider how notions of multiculturalism and global citizenship takes shape in the context of formal, schooling in a contemporary Muslim society.PDFenEsta obra foi doada ao Instituto Paulo Freire e disponibilizada para acesso público sob uma Licença Creative Commons Atribuição - Compartilhamento pela mesma licença 4.0 (CC BY-SA 4.0)Evento
