This book examines dominant discourses in human rights education globally. Using diverse paradigms, ranging from critical theory to discourse analysis, it examines major human rights education reforms and policy issues in a global culture. It also focuses on the ambivalent and problematic relationship between human rights education discourses, ideology and the state.

The book discusses democracy, ideology and human rights, which are among the most critical and significant factors defining and contextualising the processes surrounding human rights education globally. It critiques human rights education practices and policy reforms, illustrating the shifts in the relationship between the state, ideology, and human rights education policy. The book also examines developments in research concerning human rights education.

Readers will gain a more holistic understanding of the nexus between human rights education, and dominant ideologies, both locally and globally. The book also provides easily accessible, practical yet scholarly insights into international concerns in the field of human rights education in the context of global culture.
