Teacher Education and the Political: The power of negative thinking

By Anne Phelan and Matthew Clarke

Book Overview

Anxieties around teacher education have never been greater, nor criticisms of its practices stronger. These anxieties are manifested in recent policy developments, which are depoliticizing and de-intellectualizing teacher education. Against this background, they illustrate how contemporary theory can provide a language for critiquing recent developments and imagining new trajectories for policy and practice in teacher education.
