Bloomsbury Handbook of Critical Geographies of Education

Juan de Dios Oyarzún | Francisca Corbalan | Kirsty Morrin | Sol Gamsu

Education / Comparative

This is the first reference work to present an overview of the interdisciplinary field of critical geography of education. Features a diverse range of theoretical and empirical studies from different regions of the world it shows how educational systems, institutions, practices and individuals within them, are closely connected with the geographies of their contexts. The handbook is divided into six sections covering borders and migration; Climate and decoloniality in education; race and gender; neoliberal policy and governance; rural and urban schooling; and socio-spatial inequalities. Each section closes with the chapter authors from that section drawing out key themes across their contexts. The chapters are written by researchers in fields of sociology, geography, and education, based in Austria, Brazil, China, Chile, Canada, Germany, Japan, Mexico, Spain, South Africa, Sweden, Switzerland, the UK and the USA. The handbook problematizes the place of geography in educational studies and engages critically with the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
