"Analysing Education Policy: Theory and Method provides a comprehensive overview of key approaches in critical education policy research. With chapters from internationally-recognised and established scholars in the field, the book provides an authoritative account of how different questions may be approached and answered. Part One features chapters focused on text-based approaches to analysis, including Critical Discourse Analysis, thinking with Foucault, Indigenist Policy Analysis, media analysis, the analysis of promotional texts in education, and the analysis of online networks. Part Two features chapters focused on network ethnography, Actor-Network Theory, materiality in policy, Institutional Ethnography, decolonizing approaches to curriculum policy, working with children and young people, and working with education policy elites. These chapters are supported by an introduction to each section, as well as an overall introduction and conclusion chapter from the editors, drawing together key themes and ongoing considerations for the field. Critical education policy analysis takes many different forms, each of which work with distinctly different questions and fulfil different purposes. This book is the first to clearly map current common and influential approaches to answering these questions, providing important guidance for both new and established researchers"--
