讲座内容
This lecture critically analyzes educational “reform” efforts now underway in a number of nations. It documents some of the hidden differential effects of two connected strategiesneo-liberal inspired market proposals and neo-liberal, neo-conservative, and middle class managerial inspired regulatory proposals. It describes how different interests with different educational and social visions compete for power over educational policy and practice. In the process, it documents some of the complex ways in which inequalities are produced by these policies. Among the major results is a major transformation in our understanding of democracy and the reproduction of both dominant pedagogical and curricular forms and ideologies and the social privileges that accompany them. Finally, the lecture concludes with examples of policies and practices that are much more progressive.
