Intercultural Education, the journal of the International Association
for Intercultural Education, requests manuscripts for an upcoming
special issue focused on "intercultural education as social justice."

Intercultural Education is a global forum for the analysis of issues
dealing with education in plural societies. It provides educational
professionals with the knowledge and information that can assist them
in contributing to the critical analysis and the implementation of
intercultural education. This particular issue will focus more specifically on engaging in intercultural education practice that purposefully transcends "heroes and holidays" or "celebrating diversity" approaches. 

Possible topics include (but are not limited to):

- Colonizing practice and policy analyses of supposedly
intercultural or multicultural education practice or policy that
actually reifies existing social orders
- The corporatization and militarization of public schools
- Critical analyses of popular existing programs and approaches to
intercultural or multicultural education
- Intersectionality of social justice issue, and particularly
intersections of class and poverty with race, ethnicity, gender,
(dis)ability, and other identities
- Globalization and educational marginalization

All submissions should address explicitly the importance of social
justice in relation to intercultural education.

We intend to include articles from an international cross-section of
authors from a diversity of fields and areas of focus within the
intercultural education and social justice milieu.

You are welcome to send an expression of intent to submit, which
should include a 50-or-fewer-word description of your proposed topic
and focus.

These as well as full manuscripts should be submitted to Paul C.
Gorski via email: gorski@edchange.org.

Manuscripts must follow the journal guidelines, which can be found here:
