Abstract
This chapter reviews ideas discussed in all previous chapters, namely, how metaphysical paradigmatic assumptions set the parameters within which we attempt to uncover and understand a complex world. For the most part, these assumptions go unnoticed and inhabit and guide our worlds—our educational world, our research world and our daily world—without us paying much attention to their power in constraining our work. The metaphysics of modernity hold grip on the educational professions and continue to offer limited perspectives through which to develop our understanding of the nature of reality, the methods by which reality should be researched, and the strategies through which interventions might be effected.
