Drawing on current scholarship,Education and Societytakes students on a journey through the many roles that education plays in contemporary societies. Addressing students’ own experience of education before expanding to larger sociological conversations,Education and Societyhelps readers understand and engage with such topics as peer groups, gender and identity, social class, the racialization of achievement, the treatment of immigrant children, special education, school choice, accountability, discipline, global perspectives, and schooling as a social institution. The book prompts students to evaluate how schools organize our society and how society organizes our schools. Moving from students to schooling to social forces,Education and Societyprovides a lively and engaging introduction to theory and research and will serve as a cornerstone for courses such as sociology of education, foundations of education, critical issues in education, and school and society.Book detailsPublisher:University of California Press; 1 edition (August 20, 2019)Publication Date:July 26, 2019Language:EnglishASIN:B07TXS134Q
