Media Reviews

"Pedagogies of Difference provides an important set of statements about the complicated nature of the relations between education and differential power. But it also goes farther. It shows possibilities as well as limits, and in the process helps us envision a more socially just education." -- Michael W. Apple, John Bascom Professor of Education University of Wisconsin, Madison and author of Educating the "Right" Way
"Through eclectic models of inquiry, Pedagogies ofDifference rigorously reconceptualizes the link between difference and pedagogy as a precondition of refashioning democratic futures through teaching and learning. Here, the contributors rethink the inventive but also reifying particularities of difference, insisting upon an ethics of solidarity committed to a practical politics of educational equity and social justice." -- Warren Crichlow, co-editor of Race, Identity, and Representationin Education
