This book is the first of its kind to showcase a range of fresh and expert perspectives on decolonising history education in Australia. The research-informed chapters by First Nations and non-Indigenous educators and scholars provide guidance on applying practical strategies for decolonising learning and teaching, and moving beyond the ‘history wars’.History has long been the most contentious area of education in Australia. This book tackles the narrow and overtly politicised ‘history wars’ debates and foregrounds the need to re-examine impacts of settler-colonialism on Australia’s history. First-hand knowledge and much-needed teaching practices are presented, demonstrating how decolonisation can be put into action through Australian history education. The chapters present a range of perspectives from the early years right through to higher education settings and argues that there is an increased need for greater awareness, appreciation, and willingness to explore and engage with multiple narratives of truth-telling that are so often contested. Readers are guided to discover how this translates to classroom practice through unique, provocative, and research-informed strategies that foreground applied decolonising approaches.Combining theoretical perspectives and practical ideas, this book is an essential resource to support pre- and in-service teachers, in all education contexts, in navigating the decolonisation of Australian history education. This makes it an important contribution to local, as well as global, decolonising efforts.

Schools, universities and education more broadly are at the centre of multiple contestations over the past, present and future. In the urgency of climate change, artificial intelligence, threats to the rights of marginalised groups, the rise of war, and ongoing colonial and capitalist dominance, challenges for education abound. In addition, with increased state repression, there is a pressing need to rethink the strategies of activism and agitation for just societies.This collection brings together scholars across a range of contexts who are grappling with these challenges and engaging a radical imagination through theorisation, experimentation and speculation, to transform education into a site of justice and possibility. The authors in this book speak back to dominant discourses and methods in education policy and practice, offering alternative ways of approaching and addressing policy dilemmas in areas such as LGBTQ, climate change and indigenous issues. Based on on-the-ground research, it collates a range of conceptual resources and tools, working to theorise, experiment and speculate as to how schools and education might address harm and inequality, envisioning and enacting different futures.An essential read for scholars, undergraduate and postgraduate students, as well as those engaged in education in schools and universities – including teachers, school leaders and parents – who are interested in the role of education in addressing issues of social justice in contemporary societies.
