Education And The Politics Of Difference

This book tackles the role education can play in the peaceful and productive globalization of difference. The authors focus on how the politics of difference influences and is influenced by educational programs, and provisions in Canadian, and in other parts of the world. Dr. Ghosh and Dr. Abdi discuss theories of knowledge, and examine how these define and represent new and established notions, practices of schooling, and social development.

Ali A. Abdi is Associate Professor of Education at the University of Alberta.
