Abstract
The outcomes of Chap. 3 form the input for Chaps. 4 and 5. In these chapters, helpful perspectives for a pedagogical response to complex societal challenges are developed. Herein, Chap. 4 focuses on axiology, and Chap. 5 on praxeology. In doing so, the diffractive methodology introduced in Chap. 3 is further developed as an effort to bring the narratives and insights of Chap. 3 into conversation with complexivistic pedagogical literature. As such, Chaps. 4 and 5 position this book more thoroughly within a growing field of cutting-edge work connecting the theory of entanglement to pedagogical theory. In Chap. 4 the axiological perspectives explored and discussed are (1) entanglement-orientedness, (2) entanglement-awareness, and (3) hopeful action.
