Cosmopolitanism and the Age of School Reform

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the intersection of educational reform and cosmopolitanism, Thomas Popkewitz examines both historical and contemporary pedagogical changes. He argues that inclusive policies like "no child left behind" are influenced by cosmopolitan ideals, yet also perpetuate the marginalization of disadvantaged groups. The book delves into the complexities of how these reforms shape perceptions of agency and empowerment while simultaneously reinforcing societal divisions. It offers a critical analysis of the politics surrounding schooling, teacher education, and educational research.
