Description

This Routledge book examines fundamental questions about education's purpose, values, and role in building just and sustainable democratic societies. Fielding and Moss challenge mainstream approaches dominated by markets, competition, and standardisation, proposing instead a radical education framework where democracy serves as a core value and care shapes practice. The work addresses how we understand knowledge and learning, our conception of childhood and schooling, and how educational systems can support creative, equitable social development. Part of the Foundations and Futures of Education series, this text offers educators, policymakers and students a critical alternative to technocratic and managerial models, grounding educational philosophy in democratic principles and human-centred values.
