This book explores how stories can be used as 'data' that prefigure and make possible the
numerous permutations of life that comprise existence and examines how stories can be
reconfigured to transform that existence into something 'other'. It uses varied theoretical and
critical frameworks such as autoethnography and posthumanism with which to explore the stories
shared that go 'beyond cause and effect'. This book looks to engage with storying and
storytelling as inquiry in non-Western 'worlds' and looks to make 'storying' 'restor(y)ing'
and 'stories' written by non-Western educators the locus of attention. By doing so it seeks to
illustrate what distinctive ways of storying and storytelling can look like in worlds other
than those that follow a Western ethico-onto-epistemological worldview. It provides a way to
articulate thought that may be commonly omitted in teacher education around the world and
looks at 'truth' as situated rather than as totality localrather than global with stories
used to problematize subject object positionings within those same stories.
