Multiculturalism and Education is an accessible yet critical introduction to the concept of multiculturalism in education. It investigates how aspects of multicultural education can be applied to teaching and learning while highlighting why it remains crucial to analyse the notion of cultural diversity. Existing and ongoing conceptual debates continue to shape how we perceive multiculturalism, and in this text, Race responds to the latest debates while deftly tackling complex topics and policy issues.
This new edition of a classic text provides comprehensive coverage of key issues, policies and debates with up-to-date references and resources. Transformative pedagogy guides the reader through the text while creating space for reflection and independent thought.
This revised volume includes:
- A brand-new chapter on Fundamental British Values and Prevent
- Reflective exercises in every chapter
- Extensive empirical research with fully up-to-date resources and references
Written accessibly yet critically, this book is a perfect resource for undergraduate and postgraduate students. Case studies, study questions and updated references alongside website resources make this essential reading.
Richard Race is Senior Lecturer in Education at Teesside University, UK and a Visiting Professor at Sapienza University, Italy. Richard is a member of the Executive Board of the Society of Educational Studies and Editorial Board Member of the British Journal of Educational Studies.
