This is an engaging discussion about the functions of education, drawing on a range of educational situations. ‘Education as a Global Concern’ introduces the issues covered by this exciting new series, ‘Education as a Humanitarian Response’. Colin Brock challenges the existing functions of education as widely and conventionally perceived, and promotes the notion of education as a humanitarian response as the prime function. He will examine the educational situations of a range of human groups that are marginalized or excluded from mainstream provision and will also consider the idea that »humane » means »appropriate ». This series presents an authoritative, coherent and focused collection of texts to introduce and promote the notion of education as a humanitarian response as a prime function of educational activity. The series takes a holistic interpretation of education, dealing not only with formal schooling and other systemic provisions in the mainstream, but rather with educational reality – teaching and learning in whatever form it comes at any age.
