520 |a "The book is an excellent addition to education literature in South Asia. The issues authors raise will have relevance for many other countries too other than their importance for understanding education issues in South Asia. Each chapter opens up new avenues for future research….Students and scholars of politics and/or education could gain a lot by engaging with the book." —Faisal Bari, Former Dean and Associate Professor, Syed Ahsan Ali and Syed Maratib Ali School of Education, Lahore University of Management Sciences (LUMS), Pakistan This volume brings together scholars, practitioners, activists, and students to reflect on socio-political transitions taking place in countries across South Asia and their implications for democracy and education. It provides an important intervention for comparative education in South Asia by looking at the kind of ideological tensions that exist within the education systems, and how these competing agendas are visible at different levels. At a time when students have been protesting for their rights across educational institutions in South Asia, where the Covid-19 pandemic has exacerbated inequalities with learning losses, and job losses, this collection creates a space to reflect on the limitations and possibilities of education in democracies across South Asia.
