Racism and Education in the U.K. and the U.S. - Towards a Socialist Alternative (Paperback)

Following the success of Mike Cole's widely acclaimed "Critical Race Theory and Education: a Marxist Response" (2009), this new book by Cole extends Marxist analysis to include key concepts from the work of neo-Marxists Antonio Gramsci and Louis Althusser. Cole begins by addressing what is distinctive about a neo-Marxist analysis. He then provides his own broad definition of racism before looking in detail at racism in the U.K. and the U.S., respectively. He goes on to examine the differences between schooling and education, and their relationship to racism in those two countries. He then discusses education in the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela. Cole concludes by outlining some practical antiracist classroom strategies for use in the U.K., the U.S., and elsewhere.
