"In this important book, Alex Means demonstrates that the culture of policing and containment in urban schools is intertwined with the material and symbolic violence of neoliberal urbanism and economic austerity. Through the perspectives of youth and their teachers, Means describes the impacts of the militarization and corporate dominance of schooling and the destabilization of disinvested African American and Latino working class communities-and he finds the spaces of hope and possibility created by young people and adults. This book should be read by all those who wish to understand, and challenge, racialized social and economic inequalities and injustices in urban schools." - Pauline Lipman, Professor of Educational Policy Studies, University of Illinois at Chicago and author ofThe New Political Economy of Urban Education: Neoliberalism, Race and the Right to the City., "Austerity now serves as a legitimating ideology to gut public schools, weaken teachers' unions, standardize curricula, punish students, and undermine teacher autonomy. Alexander J. Means explores these issues brilliantly in Schooling in the Age of Austerity . Not only does he provide a broad and multilayered context for examining the impacts of privatization, disinvestment, commercialization, and militarization of public schools, but he does so through one of the most detailed and theoretical, rich and informative ethnographies written in the last thirty years. Means provides not only a thorough critique of public school system and society driven by ruthless market forces but also a discourse of compassion, hope, and reform. This may be one of the best books on educational reform we have and should be read by everyone interested in education, young people, and democracy." - Henry A.

Additionally, Means provides the invaluable perspectives of youth from Chicago who were the direct recipients of school reform: he discusses their experiences with the process, be they positive, negative, or undetermined. While no clear resolutions are offered, several key discussions are organized to allow the reader to reflect and challenge his or her own preconceived notions about stakeholdres, outside participants, and factors influencing school reform . . . Recommended." - Choice 'Alexander J. Means provides an excellent contribution to the already vibrant discussion and criticism of the neo-liberalization of US schooling and concomitant assault on the public sphere writ large . . . Ultimately, Means' book is an exemplar of the necessary imbrication of theory, method, and ethics in critical policy scholarship.' '" Graham B.

Introduction: Schooling in a Time of Crisis and Austerity PART I: NEOLIBERAL SCHOOLING AND THE POLITICS OF SECURITY Securing Precarious Urban Futures Chicago and the Management of Social Research PART II: NARRATIVES OF ENCLOSURE AND POSSIBILITY Learning by Dispossession: Objective Violence and Educational Failure Criminality or Sociality: A Zero Sum Game? Searching for Human Security and Citizenship Conclusion: Public Schooling for a Common Security
Synopsis
Through a case study in a Chicago public school, Means demonstrates that, despite the fragmentation of human security in low-income and racially segregated public schools, there exist positive social relations, knowledge, and desire for change that can be built upon to promote more secure and equitable democratic futures for young people., Schooling in the Age of Austerity details how neoliberal privatization, austerity, and militarized policing are subverting the educative and human development capacity of urban public schools. Through a richly textured case study in a public high school in the city of Chicago, Means foregrounds the voices of educators and youth to create a vivid three-dimensional account of systemic violence and its devastating impact on public education and the security of young people at the margins of the new urban geography. Ultimately, despite the current challenges facing urban schools and communities, Means demonstrates that there exists a strong desire for change that can be built upon and nurtured in order to develop more ethical and restorative approaches to urban education and more equitable and democratic futures for young people.

- o***l (310)- Évaluation laissée par l'acheteur.Dernière annéeAchat vérifiéThe item was described to a Tee. Very good communication. Shipping was just a little slow. The box the set of books comes in was damaged (bent corners) due to packaging. Not a deal breaker because the grand kids will not store in that box; might be if it were to be given as a present. The three books in the box arrived in prefect shape. I WOULD purchase from greatbookprices1 again in the future. ThanksConstruction Site Board Books Set, Hardcover by Rinker, Sherri Duskey; Lichte...

- i***y (710)- Évaluation laissée par l'acheteur.Six derniers moisAchat vérifié2 volumes of Pogo comic strips, new and in perfect condition. Price was good, but shipping cost ($30 for two books) seems like a lot for how long it took to get delivered (23 days from Illinois to Spain). Also, seller communication was not great. First two times I wrote, their response did not address question. Third response explained at length about the private courier service they use and how it should take 1-10 business days to deliver. Maybe they should consider a different courier service.
- r***_ (107)- Évaluation laissée par l'acheteur.Dernier moisAchat vérifié*Same as the other review* Purchased two box sets from this seller with one being advertised as "like new" but was delivered as if it was actually new. Shipping time was a little slow, takes about 10 days to ship out and it takes a while to get through the system. But the packing was great and I'm still overall happy with my purchase.
