The Bloomsbury Handbook of Critical Perspectives in Early Childhood, Gebunden

Klappentext

**The Handbook of Critical Perspectives in Early Childhood offers an overview of critical perspectives on the theories and methodologies, identities (cultural and personal), and social contexts of young children, their families, communities, teachers, and caregivers.**This handbook addresses equity, power, and justice issues in social contexts and confronts the practice of shying away from naming and condemning white supremacy, racism, anti-blackness, xenophobia, ableism, and gender discrimination. The chapters challenge the colonization of educational research toward decolonization, demarginalization and humanizing that reframes and redirects the longstanding zealousness of blaming problems on children, families, and communities, leaving exculpatory policies and corporate interests which drive dispossession. The handbook includes a glossary of terms and serves as a foundational text and reference to teacher educators, researchers, scholars, students, and stakeholders working with young children, their families, communities, teachers, and caregivers.
