Fully updated throughout, this 2nd edition of Education for Social Change introduces students to education as a vehicle for social change in both theory and practice.

The new edition features a new theme of peace which is emphasised in a chapter entitled Education for a Peaceful, Just and Sustainable World. A focus of this new edition is a re-think of what is meant by a pedagogy for global social justice that brings in references to transformative learning and global citizenship. Other updates include an increased focus on the work of UNESCO and the Global Education to 2050 Declaration, additional discussion of gender, sexuality and LGBTQ education, and more critical engagement with the sustainable development goals.

Throughout the book the case studies have either been updated or changed, including more from the Global South and including the Middle East and East Asia, to reflect recent global challenges. Key theorists are introduced, including John Dewey, Henry Giroux, bell hooks, Antonio Gramsci, and Paulo Freire. Each chapter begins with an opening question and ends with bulleted concluding points, questions for discussion and a further reading list. The book includes an updated foreword written by Tania Ramalho (State University of New York, USA).
