New Perspectives on Teaching Interculturality
About the Book Series
This book series publishes original and innovative single-authored and edited volumes contributing robust, new and genuinely global studies to the exciting field of research and practice of interculturality in education. The series aims to enrich the current objectives of ‘doing’ and teaching interculturality in the 21st century by problematizing Euro- and Western-centric perspectives and giving a voice to other original and under-explored approaches. The series promotes the search for different epistemologies, cutting-edge interdisciplinarity and the importance of reflexive and critical translation in teaching about this important notion. Finally, New Perspectives on Teaching Interculturality serves as a platform for dialogue amongst the global community of educators, researchers, and students.
Series Editor:
Fred Dervin is Professor of multicultural education at the University of Helsinki.
