The volume provides crucial approaches from leading educators, curriculum theorists and pedagogues since the emergence of curriculum as a field of studies at the end of the nineteenth century. In doing so, the volume underlines the impact of a particular Eurocentric curriculum counter dominant tradition that frames a radical curriculum river in the struggle for the U.S. curriculum. In so doing, Paraskeva’s The Curriculum: A New Comprehensive Reader explores the wrangles within and beyond hegemonic and counter hegemonic curriculum inquiry exploring the advances, accomplishments and frustrations of a generation of intellectuals—what Paraskeva calls "the generation of utopia"—in the struggle for social justice and curriculum relevance.weiterlesen
