Handbook on Geographies of Education - Peter Kraftl;Sarah L. Holloway;Yi’En Cheng;Silvie R. Kučerová

Presenting a comprehensive overview of the field, original contributions from key scholars shed light on major concerns such as decolonisation, exclusion, and rural schooling, and present concrete examples to exemplify the broad scope of research on the geographies of education. Covering diverse geographical contexts in both the Global North and the Global South, chapters emphasise the significance of space, place, scale, and mobility in education. Contributors analyse spatiality and materialities, as well as subjects and technologies within learning environments, outlining the uncertainties around the future of learning and the priorities of social justice and education policy for future research.

The Handbook on Geographies of Education is an essential resource for scholars and students of human geography, sociology, education studies and policy, anthropology and development studies. It is also a beneficial read for educational policymakers and practitioners looking to understand how geographical processes and analyses matter to their work.
