This collection brings together analyses from educational contexts around the world of the ways in which notions of identity and difference, belonging and exclusion are constructed within and beyond the context of education. Three key themes link the chapters in this book - current policy and practice in education and educational research - educational imperialism and its legacy - cultures and sub-cultures within and beyond educational contexts. The contributors are the editors Stephen Ball, Renee DePalma, Stephen Dobson, David Gough, Ruby Greene, Jennifer Lavia, Ahmad Nazari, Carrie Paechter, John Storey, Takako Takano, Maddalena Taras and Deborah Youdell. This book is for academics, for students working at masters level and above, and for educational professionals and policy makers. It will interest scholars working in education, sociology, cultural studies and sociolinguistics or doing interdisciplinary work.
