The authors combine a history of recent education policy with an in- depth analysis of the origins of such policy and its impact on professional educators. The public face of these policies is separated from motives rooted in politics, profit, and ideology. The book also searches for new insights in understanding the neoliberal and managerialist assault on education. 410 0$aSociocultural, political, and historical studies in education. 606 $aDemocracy and education$zUnited States 606 $aEducation and state$zUnited States 606 $aEducation$xPolitical aspects$zUnited States 615 0$aDemocracy and education 615 0$aEducation and state 615 0$aEducation$xPolitical aspects 676 $a379.73 700 $aShaker$b Paul$01829482 701 $aHeilman$b Elizabeth E$01829483 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910962514403321 996 $aReclaiming education for democracy$94398887 997 $aUNINA
