Schooling Corporate Citizens examines the full history of
accountability reform in the United States from its origins in the
1970s and 1980s to the development of the Common Core in recent
years. Based in extensive archival research, it traces the origins
and development of accountability reform as marked by key
government- and business-led reports-from A Nation at Risk to No
Child Left Behind and Race to the Top. By using the lens of social
studies and civic education as a means to understand the concrete
impacts of accountability reforms on schools, Evans shows how
reformers have applied principles of business management to schools
in extreme ways, damaging civic education and undermining
democratic learning. The first full-length narrative account of
accountability reform and its impact on social studies and civic
education, Schooling Corporate Citizens offers crucial insights to
the ongoing process of American school reform, shedding light on
its dilemmas and possibilities, and allowing for thoughtful
consideration of future reform efforts.
