Summary

This is a vivid, engaging, thoughtful and provocative collection, as can be expected of these authors. It brings together analyses from educational contexts around the world of the ways in which notions of identity and difference, belonging and exclusion are constructed within and beyond the context of education. Linking the chapters are three key themes: current policy and practice in education and educational research, educational imperialism and its legacy, cultures and sub-cultures within and beyond educational contexts.
