Description

This series of autobiographical accounts shows how educational organizations often marginalize and silence different minority groups. The authors suggest that individuals and institutions in education are involved in an ongoing struggle over competing conceptions of what counts for knowledge. This approach goes beyond analyses which see educational life simply in terms of effectiveness and efficiency.

Description

Naming Silenced Lives presents a series of autobiographical histories which demonstrate how educational organizations often marginalize and silence different groups. Each chapter examines the way in which a specific group has been silenced by various educational arrangements, considers the import of using autobiographies and other narrative methods to alter individuals' received circumstances and describes how this naming of silenced lives and relationships to educational institutions has proposed change.
