Summary
Summary
Education remains as one of the most significant areas for social change to take place within any society. How different countries educate their citizens reveals a tremendous amount about their priorities and how their societies work. This book draws on a range of issues that deal with belonging and education in its widest definition, not just formal institutions such as schools and universities.
