Critical Multiculturalism: Rethinking Multicultural and Antiracist Education by

Description: Critical Multiculturalism by Stephen May This text aims to bring together two movements, of multiculturalism and anti-racism, which have previously been distant from each other.

FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description This text aims to bring together two movements, of multiculturalism and anti-racism, which, though having aims in common, have been at arms length in the past. Differences of emphasis have meant that classroom practice has been the natural realm of multiculturalism, while anti-racism has been dissatisfied with an approach that accentuates life-style at the expense of challenging or changing the racism that minority students experience. In these debates, there has been a concentration on culturally specific topics. This work also beyond national boundaries to find how international concerns and contexts might provide answers to problems faced in single countries.
