Greg Burnett is Senior Lecturer in the College of Arts, Society and Education at James Cook University in Australia. His research and teaching emphases include: a broad sociology of education with a Pacific focus; the influence of cultural and other social difference on schooling; and an exploration of critical and postcolonial theory as a basis for teaching, learning and researching in teacher education. His professional and personal life have emerged from various Pacific ‘routes’ that have led via Australia, Nauru, Kiribati, Fiji and New Zealand to name but a few. In each of these places he has lived and worked as an educator at various levels for extended periods over the last 30 years.
