The American scholar and activist Nancy Fraser has written about a
wide range of issues in social and political theory, and is
well-known for her philosophical perspectives on democratic theory
and on feminist theory. Her work on justice and identity politics
has been particularly widely cited, and she has also been active in
developing a 'feminism for the 99%'. Although education has not
been a direct focus for much of her work, her thinking has been
widely disseminated within the critical study of education. This
volume illustrates the way in which education researchers have
taken up and developed Fraser's theories in the areas of
alternative education, higher education, inclusion and disability,
and the effects of neoliberalism upon public (state) education, as
they ask how social justice within the education system can be
enhanced. These insightful essays cover a range of countries and
topics, as the authors work with Fraser's concepts, to argue for
the development of a more equitable education system. The chapters
in this book were originally published as articles in Taylor and
Francis journals.
