Recent times have witnessed radical changes in society and culture.
Post-industrial and post-Fordist global capitalism, shrinking job
markets, economic recession, new forms of surveillance and control,
large media conglomerates, near ecological breakdown, the rise of fear
and of social and personal instability have put pressure on the
discourses and practices of education in culture and society.<o:p></o:p></font></font></font></span></p>

has a long-standing record of involvement with education in the work of
Raymond Williams, Henri Giroux, Peter McLaren, Paulo Freire, M. Byram,
and Lawrence Grossberg to quote but a few researchers and
practitioners, who have repositioned education as an interdisciplinary
field where issues of identity, diversity and power, the ‘high’ and the
‘low’ of culture, the identity politics of education, the ‘cultural
wars’ between liberals, conservatives and radicals matter. <o:p></o:p></font></font></font></span></p>
