Challenges and Inequalities in Lifelong Learning and Social Justice

Editat de Susan Jackson
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 7 mai 2013
The connections and interactions of lifelong learning and social justice are complex and contested. Both are seen as a means to unconditional good, with little account taken of the inequalities and equalities located in constructions of power. This book develops critical ways to engage with international debates about lifelong learning and social justice through a range of competing and contested definitions, setting out some of the complexities and challenges of linking the two concepts. In particular, it engages in debates about the equalities and inequalities of learner identities, displacement and place. Its chapters consider those marginalised in complex and multiple ways, including gender, social class, ethnicity, age and migration.
This book was originally published as a special issue of the International Journal of Lifelong Education.
