Postmodernism has become the orthodoxy in educational theory. It
heralds the end of grand theories like Marxism and liberalism,
scorning any notion of a united feminist challenge to patriachy, of
united anti-racist struggle, and of united working-class movements
against capitalist exploitation and oppression. For postmodernists,
the world is fragmented, history is ended, and all struggles are
local and particularistic. Written by internationally renowned
British and American educational theorists Marxism Against
Postmodernism in Educational Theory-a substantially revised edition
of the original 1999 work Postmodernism in Educational
Theory-critically examines the infusion of postmodernism and
theories of postmodernity into educational theory, policy, and
research. The writers argue that postmodernism provides neither a
viable educational politics, nor the foundation for effective
radical educational practice and offer an alternative 'politics of
human resistance' which puts the challenge to capitalism firmly on
the agenda of educational theory, politics, and practice.
