Description
Mirroring worldwide debates on social class, literacy rates, and social change, this study explores the intersection between reading politics and social class in Singapore, one of the top scorers on the PISA tests, and questions the rhetoric of social change that does not take into account local spaces. Moving beyond research on reading practices that have until now focused mostly on Western contexts, this comparative study of reading practices in Singapore, brings a fresh theoretical approach to the study of reading practices by mobilizing critical spatial theory and unearths previously unacknowledged spaces of (in)equity in reading practices and reconfiguring these spaces for intervention.
