Working (With/out) the System
Educational Leadership, Micropolitics and Social Justice
by Armstrong, Denise E.; Ryan, James
Description
The title of the book, Working (With/out) the System, draws attention to the ways in which social justice workers/leaders (teachers, administrators, students, community members) navigate educational institutions and the wider social systems that are not always hospitable to changes that promote social justice. This volume describes the prospects, possibilities and actual practice of working with, working without, and working outside of educational organizations to promote social justice. Among other topics, the chapters probe:
- the manner in which social justice-minded leaders navigate micropolitical environments
- the ways in which social justice minded leaders promote and sustain social justice action within systemic contexts
- the difficulties and successes that they experience.
