Toward a New Common School Movement Hardback
by Noah De Lissovoy, Alexander J Means, Kenneth J. Saltman
Part of the Critical Interventions series
Hardback
Description
Toward a New Common School Movement is a bold and urgent call to action.The authors argue that corporate school reform in the United States represents a failed project subverted by profiteering, corruption, and educational inequalities.Toward a New Common School Movement suggests that educational privatization and austerity are not simply bad policies but represent a broader redistribution of control over social life-that is, the enclosure of the global commons.
This condition requires far more than a liberal defense of public schooling.
It requires recovering elements of the radical progressive educational tradition while generating a new language of the common suitable to the unique challenges of the global era.
Toward a New Common School Movement traces the history of struggles over public schooling in the United States and provides a set of ethical principles for enacting the commons in educational policy, finance, labor, curriculum, and pedagogy.
Ultimately, it argues for global educational struggles in common for a just and sustainable future beyond the crises of neoliberalism and predatory capitalism.
