A provocative and authoritative compendium of writings on leadership in education from distinguished scholar-educators worldwide.What is educational leadership? What are some of the trends, questions, and social forces most relevant to the current state of education? What are the possible futures of education, and what can educational leadership contribute to these futures?  To address these questions, and more, editors Duncan Waite and Ira Bogotch asked distinguished international thought leaders on education to share their insights, observations, and research findings on the nature of education and educational leadership in the global village.The Wiley International Handbook of Educational Leadership brings together contributions from authors in twenty-one countries, spanning six continents. Topics examined include leadership and aesthetics, creativity, eco‐justice, advocacy, Big Data and technology, neoliberalism, emerging philosophies and theories, critical democracy, gender and radical feminism, political economies, emotions, postcolonialism, and new directions in higher education.A must-read for teachers, researchers, scholars, and policy makers, this Handbook: Champions radical pluralism over consensus and pseudoscientific or political solutions to problems in educationEmbraces social, economic, and political relevance alongside the traditions of careful and systematic rigorChallenges traditional epistemological, cultural, and methodological concepts of education and educational leadershipExplores the field’s historical antecedents and ways in which leadership can transcend the narrow disciplinary and bureaucratic constraints imposed by current research designs and methodsAdvances radically new possibilities for remaking educational leadership research and educational institutions

Global Migration has changed the practice of educational leaders, policy makers, students, teachers and community members. This book traces this worldwide shift through research-based chapters that touch on both local idiosyncrasies and dynamics common across many contexts.Education, Immigration and Migration identifies issues educational leaders face as they seek to lead schools and school systems experiencing immigration and better understand their current strategies for improvement. The chapters shed light on the poorly understood relationship between educational leadership and refugee populations by giving a deeper appreciation of the scope and nature of issues at local, national and transnational levels. Each chapter offers new ways in which practitioners, policy-makers and scholars can think about complex dilemmas such as the implementation of equitable and democratic values, and difficulties involved in adapting organization and culture. Given its cross-national interdisciplinary approach, this book will prove invaluable for educational leaders, scholars and policymakers alike.

This timely second edition of Education, Immigration and Migration offers new insights into the ways that educational leaders, policy makers, students, teachers and community members are changing their practice in light of global migration. Including research-based chapters that touch on both local idiosyncrasies and dynamics common across many contexts, chapter authors identify issues educational leaders face as they seek to lead schools and school systems experiencing immigration and better understand their current strategies for improvement.As the relationship between educational leadership and immigration/refugee populations is not fully understood, this updated edition will help readers gain a deeper appreciation of the scope and nature of issues at local, national and transnational levels. In doing so, authors discuss “what is working” and “what is not working,” allowing for a sharing of ideas and approaches across borders. Chapters utilize cross-disciplinary frameworks, global-national data sets, NGO reports, and descriptions of local practices in educational leadership related to the education of immigrants, migrants, refugees and asylum seekers. Documenting these journeys and influences is vital to expanding the conceptual frameworks of educational leadership as a field of study beyond managing schools.In hopes of drawing attention and awakening the field of educational leadership to the influences of [im]migration as a focal point, this volume will be of interest to state and local policymakers, educational schools, and university leaders as well as educational researchers.

This second edition handbook identifies critical perspectives in studying and practicing leadership for social justice. The co-editors have brought together over one hundred scholars, over sixty percent international. Thus, the topics and methods vary greatly, critically expanding theoretical and methodological ways of knowing the constructs embedded in diversity, equity, inclusion, and social justice. The handbook troubles the taken-for-grant ideas and norms that often act as barriers to realizing socially just practices within schools, universities, and societies around the world.Since the publication of the first edition in 2014, our world has seen a dramatic rise in populist authoritarian governments whose educational policies have exacerbated social injustices, such as criminalizing immigration and migration, banning books, increasing racism, including antisemitism, and excluding LGBTQ+ teachers and students, among many other social injustices. What will clearly distinguish this second edition of Educational Leadership and Social (In)justice is how we bring together fourth-generation international research knowledge of educational leadership for social justice.

The International Handbook on Educational Leadership and Social (In)Justice creates a first-of-its-kind international forum on conceptualizing the meanings of social justice and leadership, research approaches in studying social justice and combating social injustices, school, university and teacher leadership for social justice, advocacy and advocates for social justice, socio-cultural representations of social injustices, glocal policies, and leadership development as interventions. The Handbook is as much forward-looking as it is a retrospective review of educational research literatures on social justice from a variety of educational subfields including educational leadership, higher education academic networks, special education, health education, teacher education, professional development, policy analyses, and multicultural education. The Handbook celebrates the promises of social justice while providing the educational leadership research community with concrete, contextualized illustrations on how to address inequities and combat social, political and economic injustices through the processes of education in societies and educational institutions around the world.
