Decoding ICT compliance in higher education -- Prologue: Placing ?inclusion? in the National Education Policy 2020. 330 $aThis book acquaints the reader to the often invisible-ized practices and policies under the rhetoric of ?inclusion?, through theoretical and empirical analysis. It emphasizes on the complexities of education policies in a multicultural state by identifying the challenges to the idea of ?inclusion? illuminated through judicial interventions, policy-frameworks and everyday experiences of individuals. Higher education is imperative to empowerment in socially stratified societies marred with deep inequalities like India and many other multicultural countries. Disputes over inclusion remains a critical feature in Indian higher education sector, as it is viewed as facilitating access to economic opportunities and providing vertical mobility for individuals belonging to marginalized communities. Higher education empowers, and expands individual horizons of thought and ideas of freedom, dignity, equality, enabling individuals to participate actively in the political-sociological discourses in democratic polity. Therefore, policy makers, political theorists and educationists have been examining the question of inclusion and education as public-good. Contemporary India has witnessed an unprecedented attack on academic freedom, free exchange of ideas and expressions, challenging the very idea of inclusion and inclusiveness. 606 $aEducation, Higher$zIndia 606 $aHigher education and state$zIndia 606 $aInclusive education$zIndia 606 $aMinorities$xEducation (Higher)$zIndia 606 $aEducació superior$2thub 606 $aEducació inclusiva$2thub 606 $aMinories$2thub 606 $aPolítica educativa$2thub 607 $aÍndia$2thub 608 $aLlibres electrònics$2thub 615 0$aEducation, Higher 615 0$aHigher education and state 615 0$aInclusive education 615 0$aMinorities$xEducation (Higher) 615 7$aEducació superior 615 7$aEducació inclusiva 615 7$aMinories 615 7$aPolítica educativa 676 $a378.54 702 $aSengupta$b Papia 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910743240903321 996 $aCritical sites of inclusion in India's higher education$93559723 997 $aUNINA
