Schooling and the Politics of Disaster is the first volume to
address how disaster is being used for a radical social and
economic reengineering of education. From the natural disasters of
the Asian tsunami and the hurricanes in the Gulf Coast, to the
human-made disasters in Iraq, Afghanistan, Haiti, Sudan, Indonesia,
the United States and around the globe, disaster is increasingly
shaping policy and politics. This groundbreaking collection
explores how education policy is being reshaped by disaster
politics. Noted scholars in education and sociology tackle issues
as far-ranging as No Child Left Behind, the War on Terror,
Hurricane Katrina, the making of educational funding crises in the
US, and the Iraq War to bring to light a disturbing new phenonmemon
in educational policy.
