Offering a cross-cultural perspective, this book contains papers from internationally renowned scholars who provide fresh insights into the goals and ambitions for inclusion, participation and democracy and how these might be realized today. The 'insider' accounts highlight the complex political and cultural changes required to achieve success with the inclusion project. This book is for researchers studying inclusion, teacher educators and teachers.

From the reviews:

"The agenda for inclusion, theoretically, goes beyond the integration of disabled pupils in order to promote inclusion for all; nevertheless it is on disability that most researchers, practitioners and policy makers focus on. … the book derives from an International Colloquium on inclusion, this was held in Scotland, at the University of Stirling in 2001. … would be a valuable addition to the library of anyone involved in education, from trainee teachers to academics in the field." (Alessandra Iantaffi, Teachers and Teaching, Vol. 10 (6), 2004)
