Review of Teaching Educational Leadership in Muslim Countries: Theoretical, Historical and Cultural Foundations

Abstract

Samier and ElKaleh’s (2019) book titled Teaching Educational Leadership in Muslim Countries: Theoretical, Historical and Cultural Foundations is part of the series of Educational Leadership Theory books, which address trends in educational leadership scholarship and aim to “deliver an innovative and provocative dialogue whose coherence comes not from the adoption of a single paradigmatic lens but rather in an engagement with the theoretical and methodological preliminaries of scholarship” (Eacott & Niesche, 2019, p. v). Samier and ElKaleh (2019) present “what it means to teach educational administration and leadership in a Muslim context” (p. ix) through theory, current controversies, and case studies.
