New horizons in the ethnography of education

"This volume focuses on and exemplifies how ethnography - a research tool devoted to looking at human interaction as a cultural process rather than individual psychology - can shed light on educational processes framed by the complex, internationalized societies in which we live today. Part I offers theoretical chapters about ethnography and examples of innovative ethnography from particular perspectives. In Part II, the emphasis is on the application of ethnographic approaches to educational settings."--Jacket.
