This forward-looking series is designed to provide a new level of academic texts for an expanding, research-focused readership in Education Studies, responding to the need for texts which look beyond the professional orientation of improving teacher practice. The series will advance knowledge and study for those new to, and already familiar with, education studies at the scholarly level, introducing new and challenging theories and concepts, and will look towards pressing educational issues with a societally relevant angle such as: ecological education and sustainability; education for a new world of work and employment; new media technologies and digital education; affect studies in education; education and social justice; queer theory and education; and prison education. Ultimately, books in the series will be critical and challenging in nature, and look broadly to globalism, international education, and education for an unknown future world.
For proposals, please contact Cathal Ó Siochrú and Stephen Ward as Series Editors, or AnnaMary Goodall as Commissioning Editor
