This incisive Modern Guide provides an authoritative overview of refugee education, exploring international opportunities and challenges. Expert authors reconsider dominant paradigms through a postcolonial lens, confronting failures in national policies and highlighting avenues for innovation.

Drawing on a diverse array of international case studies, this Modern Guide conducts a broad-ranging analysis that demonstrates the plurality of refugee experiences and disrupts universalist assumptions. Chapters cover barriers to education from early childhood to university level, including racism, language divides and disciplinary practices, as well as showcasing key strategies to overcome these. The book focuses on the need to better respond to social diversity in learning institutions globally, raising key questions surrounding the meaning, purpose and organisation of education itself.

Academics and students in development studies, comparative education, migration studies, sociology and education policy will benefit from the novel perspectives in this Modern Guide. It is also an invaluable resource for United Nations and government policymakers, teachers and community activists.
