This book charts contemporary developments in counter-extremism
within the UK education sector. Set against the background of the
controversial Prevent strategy the book focuses on the expansion of
counter-extremism into education and draws on key legislation such
as the Counter Terrorism and Security Act (2015) that imposed a
statutory counter-extremism duty on public sector workers in the
UK. The authors provide a wide-ranging critique that draws on
theories of surveillance and power, an international review of
counter-extremism educational initiatives and a series of
interviews with UK lecturers. Terrorism in the Classroom highlights
the problems that occur when counter-extremism becomes an objective
of education and a part of the curriculum, as well as the anxiety
that is felt by educators who have been deputised into the role of
counter-extremism practitioners. It will be of interest to students
and scholars across a range of disciplines, including Criminology,
International Relations, Politics and Education.
