| Synopsis: |
In this volume, the editors have brought together prominent international contributors to examine the relevance of Foucauldian thought on educational theory, practice and institutional life. The result is a diverse collection that offers broad and engaging analyses of how power and knowledge are configured in the practices and norms of schooling. This text not only provides a critical examination of the significance of Foucauldian thought for education, but also discusses how Foucault's theories are arrayed in the everyday life of schools. Contributors include: Bernadette Baker; David Blacker; Marie Brennan; Lynn Fendler; Jennifer Gore; Bill Green; Sakari Heikkinen; Kenneth Hultqvist; Ingolfur Asgeir Johannesson; Mimi Orner; Thomas Popkewitz; David Shaafsma; David Shutkin; Jussi Silvonen; Hannu Simola; Judith Rabak Wagener; and Lew Zipin. |
