This book introduces students to education as a vehicle for social
change. Douglas Bourn begins by providing historical context of how
education has been linked to social change around the world and
moves on, in the second section of the book, to discuss potential
theoretical and conceptual frameworks for thinking about education
for social change. The third sections covers how social change has
been explored and promoted within different areas of learning,
including schooling, youth work and higher education. The fourth
section looks at the opportunities and challenges for promoting
education for social change and reviews current international
initiatives including those of global citizenship and climate
change. Key theorists are introduced throughout the book including
bell hooks, Dewey, Giroux, Gramsci, and Freire. Each chapter begins
with an opening question and ends with bulleted concluding points,
questions for discussion and a further reading list. The book
includes a foreword written by Tania Ramalho (State University of
New York, USA).
