商品簡介
Giroux (English and cultural studies, McMaster U.) critically analyzes neoliberalism and what he calls the New Authoritarianism, focusing on the dismantling of education in the United States and the all around attack on youth. He considers four fundamentalisms infusing American culture with authoritarianism and cruelty, how America's democratic decline has developed alongside our education deficit, the effects of permanent warfare, the case of Trayvon Martin, alienation of the youth of America, educators defending public education, growing sources for collective resistance, how Occupy Wall Street impacted political discourse, and the educational foundations for a truly democratic society.
