Summary:
With a focus on liberal education and the role of criticality, Between Education and Extremisms offers a fresh perspective on the relationships between education and extremisms. The book is underpinned by a belief that extremism is not simply a pedagogical problem which can be addressed by finding new teaching techniques or curricular revisions, or indeed by making top-down changes to education policy. Rather, it signals a critical juncture where the question of extremism cannot be separated from the question about education itself, thus forcing us to reflect upon the direction of education in recent and coming decades.
