Description

"It is difficult to fathom the myriad changes that have occurred and that influence the content of this book in just three years since the previous edition. As this book goes to press, we have witnessed many nations in Europe as well as the United States that have made dramatic political shifts from open and liberal leanings to more populist, nationalistic and conservative ideologies. These shifts have been accompanied by an increase in xenophobia and stricter actions to reduce immigration, often accompanied by a rise in anti-immigrant, anti-Semitic and Islamophobic sentiment. The conflicts and struggles in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria continue, as tensions between the United States and Russia fester. A questioning of Truth, with an onslaught of "fake news," has emerged, having a major influence on the 2016 U.S. presidential election. And we expect numerous changes to occur under the new U.S. Secretary of Education, Betsy DeVos. And these challenges are in the political arena alone. Across the planet people continue to feel the stresses of the seemingly endless changes and challenges they confront on many fronts. Climate change continues to advance resulting in new and unpredictable weather patterns despite a vocal minority that appears to deny its existence. Although making gains, people continue to wrestle with questions surrounding same-sex marriage and gay rights; the question of health care, the accelerated identification of children with autism and other disabilities, as well as our aging population span cultural differences and cut across geographic, political, and social boundaries, continuing to impact us all at the local, national, and global levels. Some people are eager to embrace innovation and change while others struggle through a variety of political and social means to retain older and more traditional ways of doing things. Such challenges continue to enter and impact our increasingly culturally diverse classrooms and communities. To effectively address and solve the multitude of issues we face it is incumbent upon teachers to provide young people with a foundation that will assist them to better understand the complex nature of the world in which they will live while developing the skills that will enable them to be proactive problem solvers in an interdependent, global society. This requires people who have the knowledge, skills, and motivations to reach beyond their own cultural boundaries and a willingness and ability to collaborate with others. If people are not willing and able to do so, these, and other future problems, simply will not be solved. Developing intercultural understanding and competence must be actively addressed throughout the school curriculum. This tenth edition of Human Diversity in Education: An Intercultural Approach, continues to focus on the preparation of teachers and other human-service providers who can interact effectively with the wide diversity of people they are certain to encounter and who are able to transmit this knowledge and skill to the individuals in their charge"--
