Islamic-Based Educational Leadership, Administration and Management Challenging Expectations through Global Critical Insights

Group Submission Type: Book Launch

Description of Session

This volume challenges current assumptions around what is known as Islamic education and examines issues around educational leadership based on Islamic principles to confront xenophobia and Islamophobia in educational systems, policies and practices. Arguing for a new term to enter the discourse – ‘Islamic-based’ educational leadership – chapters approach the issue through critical reflexivity and diverse perspectives, addressing issues such as the higher education of immigrant students around the globe and the rising tensions in Muslim and non-Muslim populations. Exploring topics ranging from the leverage of leadership to religious education, this text brings together a wide range of case studies, experiences and examinations to shed light on the different approaches of Islamic-based educational leadership, administration and management.

Editors will share how different cases led a movement in changing practices and might help in exploring Islam and education.
