Neoliberalism and Education

Neoliberalism and Education reflects on the establishment of neoliberalism as the new global orthodoxy in the field of education, and considers what this means for social justice and inclusion. Contributors examine policy, practice, and pedagogical considerations covering different dimensions of (in)equality, including disability, race, gender, and class. They ask what social justice and inclusion mean in systems dominated by competition, benchmarking, and target-driven accountability, and about the new forms of imperialism and colonisation that both drive, and are a product of, market-led reforms. This book was published as a special issue of the British Journal of Sociology of Education.
