Disability, Poverty and Education, Hardback Book

Disability, Poverty and Education Hardback

Edited by Nidhi (University of Cambridge, UK) Singal

Hardback

Description

This book is a succinct and distinctive presentation of current research addressing educational issues in relation to children and young people with disabilities in Southern contexts.

Even though people with disabilities are disproportionately over-represented in the majority world, there is a lack of texts which bring together empirical insights highlighting the unique socio-economic and cultural realities of these contexts and the ways in which these have shaped developments in education.

This book provides a comprehensive and critical overview of a range of issues, such as the dilemmas in conceptual translations, analysis of international aid and national policies, evaluation of various educational interventions, and issues interrogating the purpose of education.

Bringing together various research projects conducted in eight different countries, this book successfully captures a unique spread of cross-cultural issues.

It was originally published as a special issue of the International Journal of Inclusive Education.
