Reviews

""Professor Paraskeva is one of the world's leading educational and curriculum theorists. This book shows all the signs of a classic work. I am pleased to support this book, as I believe it will stand at the cutting edge of the curriculum field and will also be very influential among Freireans and those educators interested in critical theory and pedagogy. This book is sorely needed today, especially given the attacks on critical studies by authoritarian and populist groups. This book represents a prime theoretical weapon in the fight for democracy."" --Peter Mclaren, Professor Emeritus, UCLA, USA ""Itinerant Curriculum Theory challenges the prevalent Western-focused knowledge systems and is an indispensable addition to critical curriculum studies. It is valuable for teacher educators, policymakers, and researchers worldwide aiming to establish more inclusive and just education systems."" --Juha Suoranta, Tampere University, Finland ""The authors of this timely volume provide critical perspectives on the Western epistemology that pervades curriculum theorizing. Expanding upon João M. Paraskeva's conceptualization of itinerant curriculum theory, the chapters challenge the Anglophone curricular canon in a declaration of epistemological emancipation. A formidable, internationally appealing contribution to the internationalization of the field."" --Hannah Spector, Penn State Harrisburg The Capital College, USA
