This book explores the problematic relationship between education, social justice and the State, against the background of comparative education research. The book critiques the status quo of stratified school systems, and the unequal distribution of cultural capital and value added schooling. The authors address one of today's most pressing questions: Are social, economic and cultural divisions between the nations, between school sectors, between schools and between students growing or declining?

Des initiatives communautaires novatrices : service d'accompagnement à la naissance et rencontres de groupes de parents ; développement d'un nouveau modèle de fonctionnement afin d'améliorer le taux de réussite de jeunes en difficulté ; développement des enfants de 0-3 ans dans les communautés défavorisées ; mission, valeurs, principes et actions auprès des personnes et des familles à faibles revenus

Au cours des dernieres decennies, le champ de l'education et de la pedagogie a ete parcouru de controverses parfois tres vives, qui laissaient cependant l'impression de reprendre des debats anciens. Ceux-ci s'etaient deja rencontres sous la Renaissance ou au XIXe siecle, quand se mettent en place les conditions modernes de l'ecole. Un seminaire a reuni pendant 4 ans des chercheurs des Universites de Caen, Nantes et Rouen autour de ces questions. Etudier ce type de controverses presente en effet de nombreux avantages : elles portent sur des notions centrales de l'education et constituent un obs

Les auteurs définissent le système universitaire et s'efforcent d'identifier au sein de celui-ci les domaines d'intervention de l'État. Ils resituent les rapports de l'État et du monde universitaire au cours des trente dernières années en retraçant la place occupée par les politiques scientifiques et technologiques québécoises et canadiennes. Ils comparent les tendances des politiques publiques au Canada et aux États-Unis et les changements survenus dans les systèmes universitaires européens. Ils analysent, ensuite, la démocratisation et le financement des universités et évaluent le rôle des d

Late Ottoman Bilad al-Sham and Mandate Lebanon were characterized by an exceptionally dense concentration of diverse educational institutions. Research on education in this region during the late 19th and early 20th centuries has hitherto focused on individual institutions or movements. This volume challenges the established narrative and emphasizes the entanglements of individuals, concepts, and practices. Stemming from an international workshop held at the Orient-Institut Beirut in April 2012, the studies on local and foreign schools collected in this volume illuminate the manifold debates that entwined students, teachers, and the public over how to create a modern Arab society and the role education could play within that endeavor.

"The Canadian principle of reasonable accommodation demands that the cultural majority make certain concessions to the needs of minority groups if these concessions will not cause 'undue hardship.' This principle has caused much debate in Quebec, particularly over issues of language, Muslim head coverings, and religious symbols such as the kirpan (traditional Sikh dagger). In 2007, Quebec Premier Jean Charest commissioned historian and sociologist Gérard Bouchard and philosopher and political scientist Charles Taylor to co-chair a commission that would investigate the limits of reasonable accommodation in that province
