Making of Indigeneity Curriculum History and the Limits of Diversity

<p>Conceptually rich and grounded in cutting-edge research this book addresses the often-overlooked roles and implications of diversity and indigeneity in curriculum. Taking a multidisciplinary approach to the development of teacher education in Guatemala López provides a historical and transnational understanding of how indigenous has been negotiated as a subject/object of scientific inquiry in education. Moving beyond the generally accepted common sense markers of diversity such as race gender and ethnicity López focuses on the often-ignored histories behind the development of these markers and the crucial implications these histories have in education – in Guatemala and beyond – today. </p>
