An army of teachers: a pedagogical approach to fight against the mafia’s culture

This book presents insights into social justice issues through the work of educators in Israel, the US, the UK, Italy, Canada, Turkey and Kazakhstan. Each chapter provides local or global theoretical insights, and these combine to provide a rich international perspective.

The book offers practical strategies for the classroom, methods of teaching social justice to future teachers in various curriculum areas, and knowledge for researchers and those working in higher education. The book is unusual in its combination of local and international perspectives, practical and theoretical wisdom, and its inclusion of a variety of voices. Readers will gain new insight into concepts like radical pedagogy, interculturalism, multiculturalism, failed citizenship and cultural identity.
