Recenzii

'This book has plenty to offer for academics and students of multicultural and minority education. It provides a rich account and analysis of educating minorities under diverse settings ­ - established democracies, migrant communities, post-conflict regions, authoritarian states, and the developing world....I am particularly captivated by the concluding remark of defining education as literacy of power. Through education, minorities learn to access services and in turn shape these services.' Benjamin Tak-Yuen Chan, Deputy Director of the Open University of Hong Kong
'The present volume, comprising of a number of case studies from Asia, Africa, North America and Europe, describes the myriad of ways in which policies and programs have been designed and implemented, and highlights the political, cultural and practical problems faced by the policymakers and practitioners. A comprehensive volume covering various aspects of minority education in Finland, Hungary, the US, UK, Africa, China and India, which will be very useful for graduate students, researchers and policy makers across the world.' S.Y. Shah, Professor of Education, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi, India, and President of the Reading Association of India.
