The process of curriculum development is highly political, as
Goodson shows in this enlarged anniversary third edition of his
seminal work. The position of subjects and their development within
the curriculum is illustrated by looking at how school subjects, in
particular, geography and biology, gained academic and intellectual
respectability within the whole curriculum during the late 1960s
and early 1970s. He highlights how subjects owe their formation and
accreditation to competing status and their power to compete in the
provision of "worthwhile" knowledge and considers subjects as
continually changing sub-groups of information. Such subjects form
the framework of the society in which individuals live and over
which they have influence. This volume questions the basis on which
subject disciplines are developed and formulates new possibilities
for curriculum development and reform in a post-modernist age. It
is aimed at BEd, MEd students and lecturers, education historians,
curriculum studies lecturers and policy makers.
