Title: Multicultural Education and the Postcolonial Turn
Abstract: The assumptions which the educational system inherited from the era of European colonialism, and modified during the era of decolonisation, are currently facing postcolonial challenges. In this article, the author considers how multicultural education and postcolonial rethinking might lead educators and students to change traditional school contexts and curricula. The issues discussed focus on Australia, but also apply more broadly to countries with culturally diverse populations.
