This volume raises critical questions about the qualities of
democratic educational leadership during a time when the promise of
democratic education and public life risks being abandoned,
forgotten, and emptied of meaning. A diverse chorus of scholars in
education take on this issue by analyzing the cultural context of
educational leadership in the age of No Child Left Behind, by
offering democratic counter-narratives of educational leadership,
and by deconstructing popular culture representations of
educational leaders. In doing so, they re-situate leadership within
a political context and link it to struggles over social justice
and human freedom. The contributing scholars also radically
re-think educational leadership in ways that include teachers,
university-based educators, and scholars as leaders.
