Standing on the Brink : An Education for the 21st Century, Used [Paperback]

More than two thousand schools and kindergartens world-wide provide Waldorf education to children in Australasia, North and South America, Europe, the Far East, and Africa. How does this educational movement manage to bridge the cultural and social differences found in such diverse places as Egypt, Japan, Croatia, Brazil, New Zealand, and South Africa? How can one pedagogy find acceptance in First World societies as well as squatter and refugee camps in the Gaza Strip, Soweto, and Favela Monte Azul?This collection of essays by local and international authors -- published on the brink of the 21st century -- describes the factors underlying the multicultural acceptance and success of this vital movement.
