The Politics Of Compulsive Education: Racism And Learner-Citizenship (Routledge Research In Education Policy And Politics)

Kitching explores racialised dimensions of education to suggest how individuals and collectives are increasingly made responsible for their own welfare as 'good' or 'bad' students, at the expense of the protection of their rights as learner-citizens. Focusing on Ireland as a post-colonial Atlantic state, the book demonstrates how liberal governance, racisms, migration and mass education are interconnected and struggled over at local, national, European and global levels.
