Synopses & Reviews
Synopsis
This book is based on material arising out of collaborative work which addresses the question of 'inclusive' education in the context of policy and practice in a number of different countries including France, England, Greece, Australia, Ireland, Scotland, Sweden and the USA.
At the heart of the idea of inclusive education lie serious issues concerning 'equal opportunities' and social justice. How societies construct and respond to disability, gender, race and cultural differences is of fundamental importance. The book makes a useful contribution to the debate in linking questions of policy and practice to the wider concerns of equality and social justice.
Synopsis
First published in 2000. This book looks at 'inclusive' education in the context of policy and practice in a number of different countries, particularly in relation to children and young people of school age. At the heart of the idea of inclusive education lie serious issues concerning 'human rights', 'equal opportunities' and 'social justice'. The papers in this book will, hopefully, contribute to stimulating further debate and dialogue over both the conceptualisation and understanding of a cross-cultural approach to inclusion and exclusion.
