Series: Education, Culture, and Society

This book supports the formal education of all Indigenous children who live in different circumstances in different countries. It takes Indigenous philosophy as its starting point, while recognising that in many colonial and post-colonial circumstances, Indigenous knowledge, culture and language may not be valued. For this reason, Indigenous and non-Indigenous theorists and authors are included to demonstrate the recognised links between Indigenous and non-Indigenous understandings and practices of culture, knowledge and learning and therefore common approaches to formal education. Chapters are arranged in an integrated fashion to discuss contextual issues regarding global political and economic influences and the notion of what it means to participate fully in society.

Reviews for Indigenous Schooling in the Modern World: Education, Knowledge and Liberation for All Citizens

Overall, this book is a challenge to many of the normative assumptions about curriculum, pedagogy and identity that frequently sideline, marginalise and 'other' Indigenous peoples. This is a book that will be of value to any teacher who cares about making a difference and wants to see what other people have achieved. (...) There are clear lessons for those working in the field of 'Indigenous education in the modern world' but there are also lessons to support 'education, knowledge and liberation for all citizens of the world'. - Meg Maguire, in: Journal of Education Policy, 2021
