Educational Leadership, Management, and Administration through Actor-Network Theory explores the profound implications of actor-network theory (ANT) and its related vocabularies for a critical re-imagining of the dynamics of management in education and educational leadership. By extending the contemporary perspective of ANT into the study of educational administration and management, this book offers a fresh and innovative approach to understanding the complexities of educational leadership and management.

Drawing on a series of case studies that focus on emerging configurations of educational management and leadership, the book showcases the potential of ANT to offer new insights and perspectives. It introduces the concept of "After ANT" and "Near ANT," which provide valuable extensions to the theory and offer ways to think critically and intervene in the current dynamics of education.

One of the key contributions of this book is its proposal that ANT can provide an ecological understanding of educational leadership. By abandoning the narrow humanistic world of managerialism and considering a post-anthropocentric scenario, where it is necessary to compose together new liveable assemblages of humans and nonhumans, the book offers a fresh perspective on the role of educational leaders in shaping a more sustainable and inclusive future.

This book is of immense interest to academics, scholars, and post-graduate students in the fields of educational management, leadership, and administration, as well as education policy. It provides a comprehensive and interdisciplinary understanding of the complex dynamics of education, and offers valuable insights and strategies for policymakers and experts in education policy at the national, European, and international levels.

In conclusion, Educational Leadership, Management, and Administration through Actor-Network Theory is a groundbreaking work that offers a fresh and innovative perspective on the dynamics of management in education and educational leadership. By leveraging the power of ANT and its related vocabularies, the book provides a valuable resource for scholars, practitioners, and policymakers alike. It is a must-read for anyone interested in shaping a more sustainable and inclusive future for education.
