Descrizione articolo

Riassunto

Cross-national comparisons give readers at fresh look at familiar concepts. How does it matter, for example, to think in terms of “majorities” rather than “minorities,” “migrants” rather than “immigrants,” or “intercultural education” rather than “multicultural education”? How does indigenous education or the work of teachers look different to ethnographers from different countries of the Americas? The volume helps readers understand and learn from ethnography of education conducted across the Western Hemisphere, and also includes a practical guide to finding the relevant literature.
