International Education For What?: Under What Conditions? The Global Schoolhouse Project
Social Alternatives, Vol.24(4), pp.6-12
2005

We argue that dominant expressions of international education militate against the development of globally oriented citizens, a mindful world community who will cherish the 'right and duty to change the world'
