Nordic Perspectives on Human Rights Education
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-032-37537-3 (ISBN)
In an age characterised by authoritarianism and extremism, but also social and climate justice movements, this book provides a critical analysis of current practice within schools. Contributing authors also discuss how a human rights framework may improve practice, supporting intersectional thinking and more sustainable learning environments, while also empowering teachers to confidently navigate issues of gender, national identity and minority rights.
Divided into three distinct sections, chapters invite readers to consider:
The context behind human rights education (HRE)
Rights-based approaches to teaching and education
International dialogue and how we may learn from the approaches of other countries.
Drawing on research from the Nordic region, and discussing its implications elsewhere, this volume is an essential resource for scholars developing theory and practice in human rights education, social studies, citizenship education and international and comparative education.
