Education and Race from Empire to Brexit, Paperback / softback Book

Education and Race from Empire to Brexit Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Covering the period from the height of Empire to Brexit and beyond, this book shows how the vote to leave the European Union increased hostilities towards racial and ethnic minorities and migrants.

Concentrating on the education system, it asks whether populist views that there should be a British identity - or a Scottish, Irish or Welsh one - will prevail.

Alternatively arguments based on equality, human rights and economic needs may prove more powerful.

It covers events in politics and education that have left most white British people ignorant of the Empire, the often brutal de-colonisation and the arrival of immigrants from post-colonial and European countries.

It discusses politics and practices in education, race, religion and migration that have left schools and universities failing to engage with a multiracial and multicultural society.
