Teaching the World's Teachers
Examining teacher education in an international context, this book captures the diversity of the world's educators. Many countries confront surprisingly similar challenges in preparing K–12 educators for success, while national contexts also make for surprising differences. In Teaching the World's Teachers, education historians Lauren Lefty and James W. Fraser and their contributors make a convincing case for approaching these shared challenges from a more global and historically minded perspective. Written by education scholars from eleven different countries—Argentina, Brazil, Catalonia-Spain, China, England, Finland, Ghana, Israel, Singapore, South Africa, and the United States—this...
Imagining Teachers
This book calls for a different understanding of the professional preparation of pre-service teachers, critically reflecting on issues of caring and gender, and challenging the dominance of 'words only' educational research methodologies. Using conceptual tools from visual anthropology, cultural studies, feminism and critical pedagogy, Fischman focuses on the educational dilemmas that students and professors in teacher education programs face within institutions that reinforce, rather than challenge, oppressive class, racial, ethnic and gender dynamics. He pays special attention to the transmission of models of teaching that are invested of essential masculine and feminine patterns that potentially lead to two very distinctive professional careers: one that is associated with 'dedication' and 'care', and a second that emphasizes 'order' and 'command'.

State and Nation Making in Latin America and Spain: Volume 1
This book examines how Latin American countries and Spain tried to build modern and efficient state institutions for more than a century - without much success. The chapters tell how these countries went about constructing systems of authority that could manage their territories, support economic development, provide basic services, and promote a sense of national community. The book can serve as an introduction to nineteenth-century Latin America and Spain, as a historical guide to the process of state building, and as a tool for experts looking for the latest work by leading scholars in the field.
Women and Teaching
This unique volume addresses issues of gender in education by examining the work experiences and policies affecting women and teaching in Latin America, North America and parts of Europe, with a focus on the social construction of women teachers.
Nuevos maestros para América Latina
Este volumen está destinado al colectivo de profesionales involucrados en la formación docente en una América Latina que, cada vez más, reconoce y acepta positivamente su diversidad cultural y lingüística. Nuevos maestros para América Latina busca contribuir a esta discusión y análisis reuniendo trabajos con un balance y perspectivas de la formación docente en un grupo de países latinoamericanos en los que están en curso reformas educativas. Extrae y presenta lecciones aprendidas que orientan tanto la formulación de políticas educativas como la puesta en marcha de programas y proyectos específicos. Desde este espacio deseamos estimular innovaciones educativas que no sólo den cuenta de la diversidad, sino que partan de ella y contribuyan a la búsqueda de la unidad en la diversidad. Las nuevas demandas de nuestras sociedades obligan a reconstruir tanto las prácticas educativas como el sentido de la formación del profesorado. Ambas tareas son imprescindibles si realmente se pretende formar una ciudadanía intercultural más crítica y más democrática.
The Routledge History of Latin American Culture
The Routledge History of Latin American Culture delves into the cultural history of Latin America from the end of the colonial period to the twentieth century, focusing on the formation of national, racial, and ethnic identity, the culture of resistance, the effects of Eurocentrism, and the process of cultural hybridity to show how the people of Latin America have participated in the making of their own history. The selections from an interdisciplinary group of scholars range widely across the geographic spectrum of the Latin American world and forms of cultural production. Exploring the means and meanings of cultural production, the essays illustrate the myriad ways in which cultural output illuminates political and social themes in Latin American history. From religion to food, from political resistance to artistic representation, this handbook showcases the work of scholars from the forefront of Latin American cultural history, creating an essential reference volume for any scholar of modern Latin America.
