Abstract

Education as the Practice of Eco-Social-Cultural Change, part of the Palgrave Studies in Educational Futures series, is a thought-provoking book written by Mark Fettes and Sean Blenkinsop. This insightful work, consisting of four captivating chapters, delves into the urgent need for transformative education in the face of global ecological, social, and cultural challenges. The authors explore the interconnectedness of the three key signifiers of the book series title, i.e. the Anthropocene, ecology, and aesthetic imaginaries, emphasizing the role of education in addressing these pressing issues. Through a combination of theoretical analysis, practical examples, and innovative perspectives, Fettes and Beinkinsop provide a compelling argument for reimagining education as a catalyst for eco-social-cultural change.
