Overview
- The collection brings together diverse contemporary and historical cases of curricula, educational practice, and policy as implemented in conflict-affected and post-conflict contexts; these empirical studies bring new theoretical insights into the linkages between education, conflict, and national identity formation
- The studies in this collection explore the potential roles of education as an instigator of inter- and intra-state conflict, a mechanism through which conflict dynamics are reproduced, and as a contributor to peacebuilding, conflict transformation, and national reconstruction efforts
- The essays in this book explicitly seek to link curriculum and curricular reforms over time, to broader structures relevant to conflict, conflict legacies, and constructions of national identity
