This study examined a particular controversial hiring act in Murphy Lake School District (MLSD), a mid-sized school district in the Midwestern United States, with the intention of developing a working theory of the politics of controversy and public opinion in and around pK--12 education. The hiring of a full-time Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender and Questioning (GLBTQ) resource teacher on the district level was a cognitive "artifact" and conceptual device for theory development. This hiring provided a compelling entry point for beginning to understand controversy and public opinion in and around schools because various educational stakeholders hold strong views about and push for many decisions regarding the intersection of sexuality and schools. The unit of analysis in this study was not so much the hiring act itself as much as the thought processes as amalgamated in and dictated by systems of reason that come together to create a certain "culture" of controversy in and around schools.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a This study examined a particular controversial hiring act in Murphy Lake School District (MLSD), a mid-sized school district in the Midwestern United States, with the intention of developing a working theory of the politics of controversy and public opinion in and around pK--12 education. The hiring of a full-time Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender and Questioning (GLBTQ) resource teacher on the district level was a cognitive "artifact" and conceptual device for theory development. This hiring provided a compelling entry point for beginning to understand controversy and public opinion in and around schools because various educational stakeholders hold strong views about and push for many decisions regarding the intersection of sexuality and schools. The unit of analysis in this study was not so much the hiring act itself as much as the thought processes as amalgamated in and dictated by systems of reason that come together to create a certain "culture" of controversy in and around schools.
520 $a This study used qualitative ethnography influenced by postmodernism and rooted in analytic induction. The 25 participants included concerned members of the general public, district employees, school board members, and members of groups with concern in this area. 25 first round interviews and eight follow up interviews were conducted. Those with opposing viewpoints on the hiring were deliberately chosen by using a procedure known as purposeful sampling. Documents were also analyzed.
520 $a This study concluded that controversy is the product of a complex interplay that is not only the result of certain power arrangements but also (re)produces those power arrangements continually. The characteristics of the systems of reason that come together around controversy are governmental in nature (in the Foucault sense), associated with worldviews and identity, and are mobilized by weapons of mass construction. Public opinion is formed and (re)formed as part of a process of production utilizing binaries and strategies for shaping the positions of others. Rooted in the way of seeing articulated in the conceptual framework, this working theory of controversy posits a three-legged stool with controversy as the seat and worldviews, identity, and weapons of mass construction as the three legs.
