Zusatztext "Tillman and Scheurich and their diverse set of contributors to this Handbook accomplish a weighty task. In light of the cumulative pressures of high-stakes accountability and framing of growing racial! socioeconomic and linguistic diversity as problems to be solved by school leaders! these scholars call on a field grounded in traditional! narrow conceptions of leadership to rethink and reframe its conceptualizations of what it means to lead schools in a way that values diversity and difference. They establish a strong research base on which educational leaders! broadly defined! should take suggestions to heart as they seek to address legacies of exclusion! segregation! bias and discrimination. Through their bold critique of leadership as usual and recommendations for inclusive leadership practice in the future! they not only expand our knowledge of what it means to lead for social justice! but demonstrate how socially conscious research on educational leadership can work to resist the privilege imperative." ?
