Uniquely, Collateral Damage considers the privatization of public education in relation to both globalization and local struggles over curriculum, schools, and culture.   Saltman describes the dangers to democracy posed by educational policy debates increasingly framed by the language and logic of the market. He reveals how the language of school choice, competition, monopoly, and accountability shifts the grounds of debate to naturalize education along business models rather than for the public good. The commercialization and militarization of public schools, and media images of out of control teachers reveal how political and economic struggles over privatization involve culture, citizenship, nation, identity, and even bodies.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50124994773265,"sku":"CIN0742501027G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52450828255505,"sku":"NLS9780742501027","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0742501027.jpg?v=1755771315"},{"product_id":"education-as-enforcement-book-kenneth-saltman-9780415876018","title":"Education as Enforcement","description":"The first volume to focus on the intersections of militarization, corporations, and education, Education as Enforcement exposed the many ways schooling has become the means through which the expansion of global corporate power are enforced. Since publication of the first edition, these trends have increased to disturbing levels as a result of the extensive militarization of civil society, the implosion of the neoconservative movement, and the financial meltdown that radically called into question the basic assumptions undergirding neoliberal ideology. An understanding of the enforcement of these corporate economic imperatives remains imperative to a critical discussion of related militarized trends in schools, whether through accountability and standards, school security, or other discipline based reforms.   Education as Enforcement elaborates upon the central arguments of the first edition and updates readers on how recent events have reinforced their continued original relevance. In addition to substantive updates to several original chapters, this second edition includes a new foreword by Henry Giroux, a new introduction, and four new chapters that reveal the most contemporary expressions of the militarization and corporatization of education. New topics covered in this collection include zero-tolerance, foreign and second language instruction in the post-9\/11 context, the rise of single-sex classrooms, and the intersection of the militarization and corporatization of schools under the Obama administration.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50350188593425,"sku":"CIN041587601XG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":50353720885521,"sku":"CIN041587601XA","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52522289529105,"sku":"NLS9780415876018","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/041587601X.jpg?v=1751358325"},{"product_id":"scripted-bodies-book-kenneth-saltman-9781138675278","title":"Scripted Bodies","description":"From drugging kids into attention and reviving behaviorism to biometric measurements of teaching and learning Scripted Bodies exposes a brave new world of education in the age of repression. Scripted Bodies examines how corporeal control has expanded in education, how it impacts the mind and thinking, and the ways that new technologies are integral to the expansion of control.   Scripted Bodies contends that this rise in repression must be understood in relation to the broader economic, political, and cultural forces that have produced an increasingly authoritarian society. This book details how these new forms of corporeal control shut down the possibility of public schools developing as places where thinking becomes the organizing principle needed to contribute to a more equal, just, and democratic society.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52099926982929,"sku":"CIN113867527XVG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52614910869777,"sku":"NLS9781138675278","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52747045896465,"sku":"NIN9781138675278","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781138675278.jpg?v=1757087758"},{"product_id":"education-as-enforcement-book-kenneth-saltman-9780415875998","title":"Education as Enforcement","description":"The first volume to focus on the intersections of militarization, corporations, and education, Education as Enforcement exposes the many ways schooling has become the means through which the expansion of global corporate power are enforced.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52522312696081,"sku":"NLS9780415875998","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780415875998.jpg?v=1760576374"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-au\/collections\/author-books-by-kenneth-saltman.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
