This book offers a treatment of social justice and higher education within small island developing states like the Caribbean.



This book offers a treatment of social justice and higher education within small island developing states like the Caribbean. This is a timely exploration of some of the global-local, structure-actor, policy-practice debates that connect directly to the promise and the challenges of pursuing social justice agendas within and beyond Caribbean institutions of higher education.

In this book, the key points of examination are the (i) changing patterns within the global higher education landscape, emerging mandates for university systems, (ii) the perspectives and challenges for diverse student and staff populations, and (iii) the ways in which these collectively impact social justice agendas within institutions of higher education. The contextualization and politicization of these issues within the broader discourse of small island developing states deepens the understanding of the prospects and challenges of addressing social injustices within the contemporary landscape, but with some re-engagement of existing conceptions and theorizations (related to inclusivity, diversity, equity, ontology, coloniality, postcolonial and critical race theory) to inform how actors within these institutions can strategically respond.

It will be vital reading for scholars and educational researchers with interests in higher education, social justice, and small island developing states (SIDS).

Arvustused

This is an excellent book! It presents brilliant analyses of the both overt and hidden agendas of Caribbean higher education. It is a must-read for all academicians, students, policy makers and implementers and any advocate for increased social justice in our education system. I hope our Caribbean Governments pay attention!!"-Aldrie Henry-Lee, Professor (sociology) and Pro Vice Chancellor (Graduate Studies and Research), The University of the West Indies, Mona

Esnard and contributors offer insightful analyses of educational inequalities and strategies for reform, making it a crucial guide for reshaping Caribbean education towards greater inclusivity and equity."- Hon.
