It combines a unique analysis that brings together a discussion of the ethical and conceptual languages in which this aspiration has been articulated with descriptions of initiatives to address questions of gender, justice and schooling. It calls for a new connected approach in policy and practice to address the urgent global challenges in gender and schooling."--BOOK JACKET ER -
