This book will provide practical and educative accountability policies, ie. processes and criteria that will enhance the quality of learning, teaching and leadership in educational institutions and systems. Its scope will be limited to: a review of the history of ideas and international policies concerning accountability; policy research methodology designed to produce educative alternatives; reporting policy research findings obtained using the methodology; and, exploring the implications of the findings for principals, teachers, parents and system managers.

The American court system is making increasing use of sociologists as expert witnesses. From toxic torts to religious cults and brainwashing, sociological knowledge is becoming increasingly more commonplace in the legal arena. This edited volume is a collection of the experiences of sociologists who have appeared as expert witnesses in a variety of court cases. Many of the cases covered in this book revolve around central issues of murder, self-defense, religious cults, battered women, child pornography, environmentalism, and homelessness. This volume is unique in its breadth of topics and contributions.

The Indonesian revolution demands attention as a revolution, and as an important chapter in the collapse of Western colonialism. In the first place, however, it is the watershed of modern Indonesian history, and must be understood in terms of that history.

This thought-provoking book outlines the pedagogical value of African storytelling. It demonstrates that African wisdom has historically been part of violent colonial elimination, leading to the ontological expendability of these stories and them being excluded, forgotten, and devalued in academic circles.George Dei, Dionisio Nyaga and Juliana Kami critically examine the industrialisation of knowledge and the fallacy of a singular epistemological truth. Using key examples and case studies, they represent storytelling as a necessary and ethical methodology of knowledge production. Chapters delineate how, in light of global expansion and transnational movement, formerly subjugated stories from across the continent are breaking boundaries beyond the colonial confinement of Africa. In doing so, the global education system is learning from African Indigenous education and departing from the Eurocentric belief that truth is singular. This inspiring book illustrates the multiple truths that are told through everyday African riddles, proverbs, teachings and songs in ways that give credence to African realities and values in a global village.Innovative and incisive, African Storytelling for Global Citizenship Education is an essential read for students and scholars at the intersection of educational philosophy, development and postcolonial studies. Teachers and professionals in policy and citizenship education will also benefit from its valuable insights.
