The Politics of Knowledge in Education Paperback / softback
by Elizabeth Rata
Part of the Routledge Research in Education series
Paperback / softback
Description
This book explores the decline of the teaching of epistemic, conceptual knowledge in schools, its replacement with everyday social knowledge, and its relation to changes in the division of labor within the global economy.
It argues that the emphasis on social knowledge in postmodern and social constructionist pedagogy compounds the problem, and examines the consequences of these changes for educational opportunity and democracy itself.
