“This edited book is a powerful curation of narratives, which set out pertinent and relevant perspectives on evolving dialogues in multi-culturalism and multicultural education… It is a timely, comprehensive and insightful tome, which will be a useful addition to any global anti-racist bookshelf.”
Dr Susan Davis, Reader in Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in Education, School of Education and Social Policy, Cardiff Metropolitan University, UK
Multicultural dialogues are as important now as ever. This volume explores narratives in education that have developed internationally in response to changing policies and the modern world. Its contributions reflect on the necessity of sustained dialogue within the wider social and political sciences alongside national and international politics, to enable more multicultural voices to be heard and to respond to the challenges of the modern world. Cultural diversity is a great societal strength and globalisation within education can increase our understanding of this.
This edited volume:
- Comprises work by researchers from across the globe
- Draws on real-life case studies and empirical evidence
- Consists of 20+ chapters covering a range of topics
Building on case studies from England, Turkey, Italy and more, this text transcends national policy to ask what the core values of multicultural education truly are. From policy and pedagogy to the impact on curricula, it is essential reading for students and those working across the fields of education and sociology, particularly with an interest in social justice, inclusion and multiculturalism.
