The New Political Economy Of Urban Education: Neoliberalism, Race, And The Right To The City Paperback

Pauline Lipman

Urban education and its contexts have changed in powerful ways. Old paradigms are being eclipsed by global forces of privatization and markets and new articulations of race, class, and urban space. These factors and more set the stage for Pauline Lipman's insightful analysis of the relationship between education policy and the neoliberal economic, political, and ideological processes that are reshaping cities in the United States and around the globe.

Refreshingly, is attempting to seek answers, as she probes the ways in which the changing urban landscape has shaped urban education. Like the rest of us, [she] holds out hope in this book for a transformation of values and of systems, so that everyday people can reclaim the public sphere, public schools, and continue to hold accountable those responsible for governing our everyday lives. - Teachers College Record
