Description
Book SynopsisTrade ReviewAudrey Osler's new book brings astonishing depth, a global scope, a critical perspective, and the commanding authority of an international scholar who had studied and participated in the struggle for human rights across many years and a variety of local contexts." - Theory & Research in Social Education
"Osler's book is both aspirational and highly practical, offering an ethical framework as well as solid concrete advice for education in a heterogeneous democracy." - Human Rights Quarterly
"Uses personal narratives to illustrate nuances of human rights education. Osler's stance is that human rights work is not primarily about international politics, [but] grounded in local and personal contexts." - Citizenship Teaching & Learning
"Osler calls on us to realize the struggle for human rights and act in a way that supports them through human rights education. What may very well be needed, she claims, is a renewed and energized focus on civic learning and education for cosmopolitan citizenship, that informs and acts on the local, national and global contexts." - Teachers College Record
