TOWARDS AN EDUCATION FOR SOCIAL JUSTICE KARTONI...

This book challenges educators to envisage an education system which sees as its goal a more
socially just world. It explores the question of how education  both formal and informal  can
positively impact on all pupils' life chances and life experiences. The contributors to the
book take the view that access to an equitable education for all is a necessary condition for
the advancement of social justice  indeed the book argues that social justice cannot be
achieved except through education. The authors suggest that it is the responsibility of
educators to support the advancement of the millennium development goals including the
achievement of universal primary education and the promotion of gender equality and the
empowerment of women. The authors in this collection explore a range of case studies and offer
evidence for the ways in which education has proved detrimental to the advancement of social
justice. More importantly they point to ways in which our global education system can be
developed to meet the requirements of a socially just society.
