Beyond equality and inequality in education: Bakhtinian dialogic ethics approach of human uniqueness to educational justice

Contrasting Vygotsky’s and Bakhtin’s approaches to consciousness
Matusov (2011) sustains that Vygotsky and Bakhtin represent irreconcilable theoretical approaches. In his view, Vygotsky’s model is monologic and universalist, while Bakhtin’s is dialogic and pluralist.
