Description

This book examines dominant discourses in values education globally.

It critiques dominant discourses and debates pertaining to values education and cultural identity, set against the current backdrop of growing social stratification and unequal access to quality education.

It addresses discourses concerning globalisation, ideologies and the state, as well as approaches to values education in schools.

The book explores the ambivalent and problematic connections between the state, globalisation and values education.

It also explores conceptual frameworks and methodological approaches applicable to research on values education, multiculturalism and identity politics.  Drawing on diverse paradigms, ranging from critical theory to globalisation, the book focuses on globalisation, ideology and values education and critically examines recent research dealing with cultural diversity and its impact of identity politics.

Given the need for a multiple perspective approach, authors from diverse backgrounds offer a wealth of insights, contributing to a more holistic understanding of the nexus between values education, multiculturalism and national identity.

With contributions from key scholars worldwide, the book should be required reading for a broad spectrum of users, including policy-makers, academics, graduate students, education policy researchers, administrators and practitioners.
