Book Synopsis:

Social Justice and International Education brings together educators, scholars, and practitioners doing innovative work promoting social justice, confronting inequality, and fostering social responsibility in a global context. The book does not operate on a singular definition of social justice; rather, the authors describe their own definition and how it has guided their work. The book explores research, social justice in practice, and different perspectives from practitioners across the field.
