Evaluating Old and New International Paradigms
Redaktion: Mitchell, David

Produktbeschreibung

Is inclusion a Western idea, which cannot work in developing countries? What factors make inclusive education accepted in some countries, but not others? The contributors to this book examine the relationships that exist between the social, political, and cultural contexts of inclusive education as it is being implemented - or in some cases not implemented.
