Book Description | There are many wisdoms and lessons about the value of education in most societies. Ghazi Al-Gosaibi says, “The path to development passes first through education, secondly through education, and thirdly through education. In short, it is the first and last word in the saga of development.” Edward Everett praises the importance of education, saying, “Education guards the country better than an organized army.” . The book adopts a critical stance that includes theoretical studies of the relationships between educational policy and social inequality by showing how education policies create, and sometimes exacerbate, social inequalities. The book shows that critique and policy studies can have a transformative function, imposing new dimensions for understanding the role of education policy in relation to recurring social problems and seeking to improve social inequality in ways that equality is possible in the liberal democratic state, as well as in other forms of governance and administration. |
