Toward a New Common School Movement is a bold and urgent call to
arms. Corporate school reform in the United States represents a
failed project riven by profiteering, corruption, and abysmal
educational inequalities. Toward a New Common School Movement
suggests that educational privatization and austerity are not
simply bad policies but represent a broader redistribution of
control over social life that is, the enclosure of the global
commons. The book argues that this condition requires far more than
a liberal defense of public schooling. It requires recovering
elements of the radical progressive educational tradition while
generating a new language of the common suitable to the unique
challenges of the global era. Toward a New Common School Movement
traces the history of struggles over public schooling in the United
States and in doing so provides a set of ethical principles for
enacting the commons in educational policy, finance, labor,
curriculum, and pedagogy. Ultimately, it argues for global
educational struggles in common for a just and sustainable future
beyond the crises of neoliberalism and predatory capitalism. There
is no alternative.
