‘Spanning primary, secondary and higher education, this collection is truly international in scope and convincingly shows that the geographically uneven provision of learning, and the mobilities and materialities associated with this, should be a matter of pressing academic concern. Representing the state-of-the-art in geographies of education, this volume comes highly recommended.’
