Creativity and Democracy in Education: Practices and politics of learning through the arts

by Allan Owens and Jeff Adams

Book Overview

The struggle to establish more democratic education pedagogies has a long history in the politics of mainstream education. This book argues for the significance of the creative arts in the establishment of social justice in education, using examples drawn from a selection of contemporary case studies including Japanese applied drama, Palestinian teacher education and Room 13 children's contemporary art.
