Governing Children, Families and Education - Restructuring the Welfare State (Paperback, New)

A new collection of essays that address the international changes in welfare policy, this book incorporates examinations of changing patterns of regulation and reform. An international group of authors explore changes in the political, economic, and cultural systems of knowledge that relate to changing discourses of reform and governing in relation to the child, family, and education. The contributors examine the role of international donors and their emphasis on efficiency and lower social subsidies, international migration and its impact on welfare policy inclusions (and exclusions), and national policy change. While representing many different locations and traditions, contributors work within a variety of critical theoretical perspectives that critique our cultural ways of reasoning about the care and education of the child, the role and practice of the state, and the social and cultural construction of citizenship and nationhood.
