The Menace of Neoliberal Education Reforms: Where Capitalism, Behaviorism, and Positivism Meet.This book is an exposition of how political, cultural, historical, and economic structures and processes shape the nature and character of curriculum landscapes globally. By developing theoretical connections and providing contextual background, Kumar explores how colonialism and imperialism, state-led ideological control, and the wave of neoliberalism and capitalism insidiously impact the process of curriculum development in different parts of the world. Kumar also underscores how intellectual movements such as Marxism and postmodernism have shaped curriculum theory in varied political and economic settings. By emphasizing the connections between and among diverse cultural and political conceptualizations of curriculum, this volume contributes to the internationalization of curriculum studies discourses.Curriculum Studies WorldwideCurriculums (Courses of study)Education—CurriculaImperialismEducation—HistoryInternational education Comparative educationCurriculum Studieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O15000Imperialism and Colonialismhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/722000History of Educationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O44000International and Comparative Educationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O13000Curriculums (Courses of study).Education—Curricula.Imperialism.Education—History.International education .Comparative education.Curriculum Studies.Imperialism and Colonialism.History of Education.International and Comparative Education.335.43375.001Kumar Ashwaniauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut318129BOOK9910337758103321Curriculum in International Contexts2523970UNINA
