商品簡介
Written from the perspective of public education advocacy and in response to what the authors perceive is a conservative and market driven basis within current administration educational reform policy, this collection of articles explores tactics for public education reform and improvement that draw on long held principles of public ownership and responsibility for the educational infrastructure of the nation. Topics discussed include building alliances of consent through deliberative democracy, deciphering the narrative of school failure, education and citizenship in an era of democratic deliberation, and finding space and compassion to discover common educational purpose. Contributors are academics in education and public policy from US universities. Annotation c2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
