The Politics of Compulsive Education

Racism and learner-citizenship

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Using a variety of qualitative studies and analytic approaches, The Politics of Compulsive Education details the significance of mass education(s) to the ongoing racialisation of national sovereignty. It draws on in-depth historical, policy, media and school-based research, moving from the 19th century to the present day. Chapters explore diverse themes such as student deportation, austerity¿and the politics of community 'integration',¿the depoliticisation of third level education via international student and 'quality' teacher regimes, the racialised distribution of learner 'ability', and school-based bullying and harassment. Combined, these studies demonstrate the possibilities and constraints that exist for educational anti-racisms both in terms of social movements and everyday classroom situations.
