Capitalism and Education: A Marxist discourse on what we're fighting against and what we're fighting for
Submitted by knopp_s on Mon, 2011-01-03 11:28
Panel Abstract:
This panel will provide space for a discourse of how oppression (racial, language, gender and class) works in public education in a capitalist society; it will reexamine Marxist analysis (most prominently the correspondence theory of Samuel Bowles and Herbert Gintis) in today's context, and take up the question of what sorts of demands radical educators can make (and have succeeded in making) now and in the future.
