    Series Statement: Teaching Contemporary Scholars 7
    Content: John Smyth’s remarkable body of writing, research and scholarship has spanned four decades, and the urgency of our times makes it imperative to look in some depth at the breadth of his research and its trajectory, in order to see how we can connect, extend, build and enrich our understandings from it. Possibly the single most unique aspect to Smyth’s version of critical research is his passion for living and ‘doing’ what it means to be a critical pedagogue. For him, ‘doing’ is a verb that gives expression to what he believes it means to be a critical scholar. This necessitates actively listening to lives; taking on an advocacy position with informant groups; displaying a commitment to praxis; and being activist in celebrating ‘local responses’ to global issues. Smyth’s research is pursued with vigour through the lives he researches, as he interrupts and punctures ‘bad’ theory, supplanting it with more democratic alternatives, which, by his own admission, makes his research (and all research), political.
    Content: «In these dark times we need educational researchers to switch the light on. John Smyth and colleagues Barry Down, Peter McInerney and Rob Hattam have done that by invoking a challenging conversation. They share the doing of research, and this requires exchange, puzzles, and importantly a socially critical analysis of research as a practice. Importantly they have not only illuminated the vitality and practicality of doing democratic research, but they have done it for and with teachers, students and communities. If policymakers supported and acted on the practical intellectual work in the ideas, projects and methodologies outlined here then we might not only have an education system that enables children to succeed but also to experience humane teaching and learning. The contemporary historical focus on Smyth's contribution shows that research for and about equity is enduring, and while there are people who would like to pull the switch, the intellect and commitment shines.» (Professor Helen Gunter, The University of Manchester) «While it is easy to find writing about critical research epistemology and methodology, it is harder to find good examples of critical studies. John Smyth is one of the exceptions. In this book, he and his colleagues eloquently share the accumulated wisdom of a career dedicated to doing critical research.» (Professor Gary L. Anderson, New York University) «What a treasure trove of insights into critical democratic research are offered to readers within this rich and lively text. Through the authors’ thoughtful reflection and dialogue based on actual educational research projects, they refuse to shy away from difficult – necessarily political – and sometimes messy social justice issues. I believe that engaging deeply with the important ideas and work of John Smyth in this volume will provide educational researchers with a renewed sense of urgency and relevance to their own critical projects.» (Professor Darren E. Lund, University of Calgary)

    Content: This extensive Handbook brings together different aspects of critical pedagogy with the aim of opening up a clear international conversation on the subject, as well as pushing the boundaries of current understanding by extending the notion of a pedagogy to multiple pedagogies and perspectives. Bringing together a group of contributing authors from around the globe, the chapters will provide a unique approach and insight to the discipline by crossing a range of disciplines and articulating both philosophical and social common themes. The chapters will be organised across three volumes and twelve core thematic sections: Section 1: Reading Paulo Freire; Section 2: Social Theories; Section 3: Key Figures in Critical Pedagogy; Section 4: Global Perspectives; Section 5: Indigenous Ways of Knowing; Section 6: Education and Praxis; Section 7: Teaching and Learning; Section 8: Communities and Activism; Section 9: Communication and Media; Section 10: Arts and Aesthetics; Section 11: Critical Youth Studies; and Section 12: Science, Ecology and Wellbeing. The SAGE Handbook of Critical Pedagogies is an essential benchmark publication for advanced students, researchers and practitioners across a wide range of disciplines including education, health, sociology, anthropology and development studies.

    Series Statement: SpringerBriefs in Education,
    Content: This book addresses one of the most persistent issues confronting governments, educations systems and schools today: the attraction, preparation, and retention of early career teachers. It draws on the stories of sixty graduate teachers from Australia to identify the key barriers, interferences and obstacles to teacher resilience and what might be done about it. Based on these stories, five interrelated themes - policies and practices, school culture, teacher identity, teachers’ work, and relationships – provide a framework for dialogue around what kinds of conditions need to be created and sustained in order to promote early career teacher resilience. The book provides a set of resources – stories, discussion, comments, reflective questions and insights from the literature – to promote conversations among stakeholders rather than providing yet another ‘how to do’ list for improving the daily lives of early career teachers. Teaching is a complex, fragile and uncertain profession. It operates in an environment of unprecedented educational reforms designed to control, manage and manipulate pedagogical judgements. Teacher resilience must take account of both the context and circumstances of individual schools (especially those in economically disadvantaged communities) and the diversity of backgrounds and talents of early career teachers themselves. The book acknowledges that the substantial level of change required– cultural, structural, pedagogical and relational – to improve early career teacher resilience demands a great deal of cooperation and support from governments, education systems, schools, universities and communities: teachers cannot do it alone. This book is written to generate conversations amongst early career teachers, teacher colleagues, school leaders, education administrators, academics and community leaders about the kinds of pedagogical and relational conditions required to promote early career teacher resilience and wellbeing.

    Content: This book draws on the stories of thirty-two young Australians to identify the barriers and obstacles they face in ?getting a job? in precarious times and from their vantage point. It maps the kinds of educational policies and practices that need to be created and more widely sustained to assist their career aspirations and life chances. It is timely in terms of contributing to an alternative set of possibilities based on a commitment to the principles and values of social justice, respect, trust, care, democracy and citizenship. In constructing an alternative vision and practice for education and training it advocates the right of all young people to have a say in these broader public debates.  In pursuing this agenda, it deliberately sets out to listen to what young people themselves have to say with a view to interrupting the way things are. In other words, the book seeks to identify and explain the dreams, desires and aspirations of young people with a view to creating a new imaginary and socially just future. Rethinking school-to-work transitions: young people have something to say is a wonderful book! It asks those kinds of difficult questions that are necessary for addressing the troubling school-work transitions many young people from marginalised backgrounds face. In particular consideration is given to whether schools continue to be ?savage sorting machines? or whether they can be rethought in ways that support young people from such backgrounds in socially just ways. To engage in such a rethinking Barry Down, John Smyth and Janean Robinson do what might seem obvious ? but is rarely done, and rarely done so well ? they consult with young people. The young people in this book provide significant evidence of the ways in which many young people are being failed by society ? through unfriendly schooling experiences and a precarious employment market. However, at the same time the book captures the hope that many of those interviewed maintain for their futures. These stories are accompanied by insightful theorising which moves beyond critique (as important as that is) to advocating for hopeful possibilities via realistic utopian thinking. In so doing there is a rejection of deficit thinking about young people and their backgrounds, a sophisticated analysis of class, and a reconceptualisation of schooling. This book is important for those who care about social justice, young people, their futures, and education. In the book, seventeen-year-old Janine indicates that she wants to make the world a better place, through the way in which the authors of this book have brought together her and other young people?s stories she has already contributed to this ambition. Professor Martin Mills Head of School, University of Queensland, Australia Barry Down, John Smyth and Janean Robinson have set out to understand and advance our thinking related to school-to-work transitions, using a critical theoretical and critical ethnographic framework. In an original design and approach, they analyze the lived experiences of young people who are directly involved, and, importantly, have been directly impacted by the nefarious politico-economic conditions that we now face. This book makes an important contribution to the field, and provides insight and proposals for policymakers, educators and students that should be of great interest to all those concerned with democracy and social justice.
