"With compelling depth and clarity, Engaging Social Partnership offers an exemplary read on the theory and practice of university-community partnerships. Keith insightfully positions the process of partnerships at the center of democratically informed collaborative practice and principles. By providing careful and judicious analysis based on convincing evidence, Keith challenges readers to critically engage in the power, pitfalls, and promise of higher education and community partnerships." --James Earl Davis, Bernard C. Watson Endowed Professor in Urban Education, Temple University "Keith offers a practical guide for academics interested in engaging communities in a way that moves beyond a framework of 'service' to one of democratic partnerships committed to a more just world. Through insightful case studies she demonstrates the radical possibilities of university-community collaborations to build collective knowledge, transform relationships, and destabilize structural inequalities. This is a thoughtful and important contribution to the field." --María Elena Torre, Director of the Public Science Project, The Graduate Center of the City University of New York "Engaging in Social Partnershipsis not justanotherbook about partnerships.
