A new addition to the Psychoanalysis, Education and Social Transformation series 

New Media, Cultural Studies, and Critical Theory after Postmodernism 

This book argues that we have moved into a new cultural period, automodernity, which represents a social, psychological, and technological reaction to postmodernity.

Within the last three decades, education as a political, moral, and ideological practice has become central to rethinking not only the role of public and higher education, but also the emergence of pedagogical sites outside of the schools—which include but are not limited to the Internet, television, film, magazines, and the media of print culture... TO READ ON CLICK HERE 

About the Education list

The study of education has a dynamic and diverse history that both grounds the discipline in social and political movements over the centuries but also illuminates the vast theoretical discourse and applications that we continue to welcome, question, and revise into the 21st century. In recent years, as our understanding of social responsibility changes, so does academic attention to early childhood education, reform policies, and our focus on education in developing countries.

Palgrave Macmillan publishes cutting-edge discourse that engages in the interrelated issues of gender, race, sexuality, ethnicity, social context, and leadership building from early childhood development through to higher education. Our books focus on the intersection of education policy, issues of diversity and equity, media and communication studies on an international and comparative scale.
