Education Cultural Diversity

Addresses the accommodation of social equity with cultural diversity in educational terms. The book seeks to find the pathways to a less selfish and parochial response to the problem with new approaches and policies. First published in 1992. In this volume, the first of this series, many of these themes and issues are rehearsed, although the major focus is on the diversity of approaches to social and narrower educational policy and practice in culturally diverse societies. Authors have been invited to review, critically discuss and seek to extend the theoretical and ideological assumptions underlying policy and practice in their chosen field.
