Published Under the Garamond Imprint Alan Sears examines education
reform in relation to a broad process of cultural and economic
change. His book makes the case that education reform is one aspect
of a broad-ranging neo-liberal agenda that aims to push the market
deeper into every aspect of our lives by eliminating or shrinking
non-market alternatives. The author begins by showing that
advocates of education reform have had to make the case that the
current system is not working. This sets the ground for an
examination of the so-called 'Common Sense Revolution,' a claim
that drastic change was required to redesign government policies to
fit a changing world. Lean production methods are a crucial
component of this changing world, and broader social and cultural
change is now required to consolidate the emerging order built on
the spread of these methods. Education reform is designed to recast
the relations of citizenship, contributing to the cultural and
social change promoted through the social policy of the lean state.
