National Literacies in Education cover

This edited volume provides an international overview of research on nationalism in education. In light of emerging neo-nationalism and national answers to global challenges, the book contributes to a growing and desperately needed discussion on how we can understand and deal with the involvement of education in phenomena of nations and nationalisms in school, curriculum, theory and research. In this book, internationally renowned scholars as well as doctoral students and postdocs from Asia, Europe, America, and Australia show how the history of education can theoretically and empirically deal with the concept(ion)s of nation and nationalism. 

“I highly recommend Fox and Boser’s (2023) National Literacies in Education: Historical Reflections on the Nexus of Nations, National Identities, and Education. I found this book an insightful and engaging read, and I plan on drawing upon its chapters and reading more work from its contributors as I pursue historical interests related to white Christian nationalism in the US.” (Jory Brass, Historical Studies in Education, Vol. 36 (2), 2024)
