This edited book builds on International Perspectives on Exclusionary Pressures in Education (2023) and Theorising Exclusionary Pressures in Education (2024) to highlight different dimensions of exclusionary practices in schools and other educational settings around the world. Each chapter challenges established ways of thinking about and doing exclusion (and by extension inclusion), both generally and in specific national contexts. Readers are provided with varied theoretical and conceptual frameworks through which contested issues around social justice and inclusive education can be acknowledged and analysed. The book will be of interest to teacher educators and postgraduate students researching topics in inclusive education and 'special' education, where the aim is to introduce critical content that challenges narrow definitions of inclusion.
