Critical Race Theory and Education

More about the book

Focusing on the intersection of Critical Race Theory (CRT) and Marxism, this book critically examines the challenges CRT presents to educational theory and practices in the US and UK. It explores CRT's roots in Critical Legal Studies and critiques significant theorists from both regions while acknowledging CRT's strengths. The discussion is framed within the contexts of neo-liberal global capitalism, imperialism, and anti-racist socialist movements in South America, concluding with practical suggestions for classroom implementation.
