Critical Race Theory (CRT) offers an account of society based on
systemic, deep-rooted racist oppression that saturates our
commonsensical judgements to such an extent that all but the most
extreme racism appears normal and unexceptional, simply 'business
as usual'. CRT is one of the fastest growing and most controversial
fields of contemporary social theory, and education is the
discipline where its most dynamic and challenging work is taking
place. Now, answering the need for an authoritative reference work
to make sense of this sometimes shocking and often contentious body
of thought, Routledge announces a new title in its Major Themes in
Education series. In four volumes, Critical Race Theory in
Education provides a unique 'mini library' that encompasses the
very best CRT scholarship in education. As with other titles in the
series, the collection's hallmark is its combination of the
canonical and the cutting edge: every selection is either an
established 'classic' or significantly challenges and advances
thinking on current issues. The first volume ('Tenets of Critical
Race Theory in Education') sets out the core themes that
distinguish the CRT approach. Volume II ('Whiteness and White
Supremacy'), meanwhile, explores the construction and maintenance
of assumptions and practices that take for granted the elevated
status of white people's interests and perspectives. The third
volume ('Global and Specific: CRT Off-shoot Movements') focuses on
the development of CRT as an approach with an international reach,
while simultaneously retaining space for distinctive developments
that prioritize individual social groups within their particular
historic, cultural, and economic contexts. The collection's final
volume ('Doing CRT in Education') is dedicated to questions of
method, ethics, and praxis in the everyday struggle to advance
research and effect genuine anti-racist change amid systems that
normalize racism and deny the legitimacy of race-conscious
scholarship. The collection has been assembled by an editorial team
featuring some of the leading US and UK-based scholars in
educational critical race theory.
