Despite international congresses and international journals, anthropologies of education differ significantly around the world. Linguistic barriers constrain the flow of ideas, which results in a vast amount of research on educational anthropology that is not published in English or is difficult for international readers to find. This volume responds to the call to attend to educational research outside the United States and to break out of “metropolitan provincialism.” A guide to the anthropologies and ethnographies of learning and schooling published in German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Slavic languages, Japanese, and English as a second language, show how scholars in Latin America, Japan, and elsewhere adapt European, American, and other approaches to create new traditions. As the contributors show, educators draw on different foundational research and different theoretical discussions. Thus, this global survey raises new questions and casts a new light on what has become a too-familiar discipline in the United States.
Comparing Ethnographies presents cross-national comparisons that give researchers and students a fresh look at familiar concepts. How does it matter, for example, to think in terms of "majorities" rather than "minorities, "migrants" rather than "immigrants, or"intercultural education" rather than "multicultural education"? How does indigenous education or the work of teachers look different to ethnographers from differnt countries of the Americas? This engaging new volume edited by Kathryn Anderson-Levitt and Elsie Rockwell includes essays from experts throughout the Americas which help readers understand and learn from ethnographic educational research conducted across the Western Hemisphere, and also includes a practical guide to finding the relevant literature.

Pełna zaskakujących zwrotów akcji, a zarazem ciepła i pełna humoru kontynuacja powieści Poczekajka Katarzyny Michalak. Patrycja, rudowłosa pani weterynarz, opuszcza Poczekajkę, by zacząć nowy etap w życiu u boku ukochanego Gabriela. Wystarczył jednak tylko rok, by marzenia i oczekiwania dziewczyny brutalnie zderzyły się z rzeczywistością. Patrycja tęskni za swoim życiem w Poczekajce, za pracą w ZOO, a i Czarny Książę z bliska nie wydaje się już taki pociągający. Czy to właśnie na niego czekała całe życie? Zanim odpowie sobie na to pytanie, czeka ją jeszcze wiele przeciwności losu dramatycznych zawirowań. Zachcianek to historia o spełnionych marzeniach i odrobinie magii. O prawdziwej miłości, która jest tuż obok, choć wcale nie tam, gdzie jej szukamy. O odnalezieniu własnego miejsca na Ziemi i szczęścia, które jest w zwyczajnej codzienności. I o tym, że w każdy, nawet najgorszy człowiek, może zmienić się na lepsze i zasługuje na drugą szansę.
This second handbook offers all new content in which readers will find a thoughtful and measured interrogation of significant contemporary thinking and practice in urban education. Each chapter reflects contemporary cutting-edge issues in urban education as defined by their local context. One important theme that runs throughout this handbook is how urban is defined, and under what conditions the marginalized are served by the schools they attend. Schooling continues to hold a special place both as a means to achieve social mobility and as a mechanism for supporting the economy of nations. This second handbook focuses on factors such as social stratification, segmentation, segregation, racia...
