Description
Summary:The concept of social justice has become increasingly prominent in school psychology practice, research, and training. While the literature in this area has burgeoned over the last decade, relatively less scholarship has synthesized global perspectives on social justice. This article provides a brief introduction to the special issue, International Perspectives on Social Justice. In particular, we describe contributions of each of the issue’s four articles to the social justice literature in school and educational psychology as well as identify prominent themes. Finally, we describe potential directions for advancing an international social justice agenda in school psychology.
