This collection of essays frames the work of teachers and teacher
educators within a struggle over what it means to educate a highly
diverse public. Visions for public education, as shaped by
progressivism and the Civil Rights movements, have emphasized
preparation of all children and youth for participation in a
diverse democracy. This vision is being challenged by
neoliberalism, which frames education as a commodity to be acquired
for individual advancement within a competitive marketplace, and as
an arena for profit-making. In this book, Sleeter connects incisive
conceptual analyses, research reviews, and descriptive portraits of
teachers and teacher educators as they "teach back to power." She
argues that the work of pushing back against neoliberalism,
especially as it overlaps with racism, patriarchy, and radical
religious fundamentalism, is a political project, but one that
research can help to support.
