Alternatives to Privatizing Public Education and Curriculum: Festschrift in Honor of Dale D. Johnson

Book Overview

This book takes a critical view of the monoculture that has developed in education with the increase of federal funding and privatization of services for public education, and examines the shift from public interest and control to private and corporate shareholder hegemony. The contributions herein challenge the model that has set growing premiums on accountability and performance measures, and outline one that emphasizes transparency and balance among constituents in public education.
