Preview Career Guidance for Social Justice: Contesting Neoliberalism
Career Guidance for Social Justice This edited collection examines the intersections between career guidance, social justice and neoliberalism. Contributors offer an original and global discussion of the role of career guidance in the struggle for social justice and evaluate the field from a diverse range of theoretical positions. Through a series of chapters that position career guidance within a neoliberal con- text and present theories to inform an emancipatory direction for the field, this book raises questions, offers resources and provides some glimpses of an alternative future for work and life. Drawing on education, sociology, critical psychology and political science, this book addresses the theoretical basis of career guidance’s involvement in social justice as well as the meth- odological consequences in relation to career guidance research. A second, companion volume, titled “Career Guidance for Emancipa- tion: Reclaiming Justice for the Multitude”, to be published by Routledge in 2018, will explore how career guidance can be reimagined in order to serve as a liberatory force for diverse groups rendered vulnerable by the neoliberal onslaught.
