They explore the purpose of education for minority groups and in particular the place of human, social and identity capital in policy and practice. Each chapter contains a summary of the key points and issues within each chapter to enable easy navigation, key contemporary questions to encourage active engagement with the material and an annotated list of suggested reading to support further exploration."--Provided by publisher.Education as a humanitarian response.MinoritiesEducationCross-cultural studiesMulticultural educationCross-cultural studiesMinoritiesEducationMulticultural education371.82Atkin Chris1764306MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910827430103321Education and minorities4205097UNINA
