Description
This book introduces multiculturalism while also highlighting current approaches to multicultural education and placing them in a broad comparative and international context. Through a comparative view that is both domestic and international, the book explores ethnicity, race, class, and education (kindergarten through higher education) as they interact to integrate populations, while also serving vested interests and enhancing group identity and status. The authors position multiculturalism as a political and social phenomenon that affects and interacts with education and its institutions. To do this, they draw upon international cases as well as the history of segmentation and integration in the United States. --From publisher's description.
