Description

Explore the changing landscape of American higher education with this scholarly work from Routledge. As universities play a growing role in defining what knowledge is considered legitimate, understanding how curricula evolve becomes essential to understanding modern society. This book examines the dynamics of knowledge and the social forces that shape academic content. Part of the Mobilization Series on Social Movements, Protest, and Culture, this text investigates the rise of three specific curricular fields that have expanded over the last fifty years. By looking at the emergence of Women's studies, Asian American studies, and Queer/LGBT studies, readers gain insight into how student activism and social movements influence the classroom. This is an important resource for those studying the sociology of education, social movements, and the history of academic change in the United States.
