Presses Universitaires des Antilles has just published Education at the margins in times of pandemic. Precariousness, inequality and digital dividesA collective work edited by Pierre-Olivier Weiss (Université de Côte d'Azur) and Maurizio Alì (INSPE de Martinique, Université des Antilles). 

Summary: Confinement, educational continuity, distance education... The health crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic has turned the daily lives of families, learners and educators around the world upside down, particularly in certain peripheral contexts that are less visible and less publicised, but also more vulnerable. This book presents a critical and global overview of studies on education in times of pandemic in these fringe realities: overseas and post-colonial territories (in Africa, Oceania and the Americas), indigenous and rural communities, LGBTQIA+ groups, prisons, minorities and so-called sensitive neighbourhoods. Throughout the crisis, these margins have proved to be both incubators of innovation and arenas for protest, revealing the weaknesses and fragilities of national education systems and the system of global governance of education.
