It proposes both a theory and practice of a critical pedagogy of popular culture through an analysis of contemporary media and film. For students and scholars committed to a critical practice for transforming the politics of representation and otherness. 'Multicultural Encounters provides a unique insight into the complexities of teaching a multicultural curriculum in today's university. Sanjay Sharma's book is a crucial resource for all those who aspire to a theoretically informed but practically achievable anti-racist pedagogy.' - Professor Les Back, Goldsmiths College University, UK. |
