O knihe

A volume in TeachingLearning Indigenous, Intercultural Worldviews:
International Perspectives on Social Justice and Human Rights
Series Editor: Tonya Huber-Warring, St. Cloud State University, Minnesota
For readers new to the field of multicultural education and human relations education, the recency of these
publications heralded as seminal may be confusing, for certainly the concepts building the field of multicultural
education and human relations education have been around much longer. True. But, for the first time, we
found the conceptual framework, guiding principles, and critical works across disciplines and fields in Smith's
encyclopedic organization. Because of the comprehensive nature of Pritchy Smith's knowledge bases, they
have been employed as the organizing themes for this volume. I would clarify that I have not burdened authors
to study Smith's analysis and then apply it to their works; the categorization is my own. And, as is true of any
topic, the interpretation and application may be broadly applicable. One of my major goals in founding this
series has been to further develop the knowledge bases with voices from those in the trenches (literally and
figuratively) and at the chalkface-while proverbial for some parts of the world, chalk remains a teaching staple
in many regions of the world. The pages of the TeachingLearning Indigenous, Intercultural Worldviews:
International Perspectives on Social Justice and Human Rights book series will be used to build the knowledge bases for diversity concerning
places and peoples, philosophies and positionalities not commonly appearing in the professional literature on education.
Throughout this volume, authors will explore and research their own discoveries on this journey-narratives of crossing cultures and developing communities,
reconceptualizing democracy and reinterpreting traditions, seeking solidarity and sowing the seeds of social justice. Through critical reflection
in the shade of these giants, the reader may discover Ming Fang's bamboo tree.
