Description

Schooling the Violent Imagination explores how violent thoughts develop from personal violations and cultural narratives, examining the educational and psychological implications in modern society. Originally published in 1986, this Routledge Revivals edition by John Schostak investigates the connections between violence theory, parenting approaches and institutional schooling as a socialising force. The book analyses how images of violence permeate everyday life through stories, myths and folklore, shaping individual behaviour and identity formation. Schostak addresses the intersections of sexism, racism and substance abuse with the development of a fractured sense of self, offering critical insights into how schools can address these complex social challenges. This reissue provides valuable perspective on understanding violent behaviour within educational contexts and the role institutions play in either reinforcing or mitigating destructive patterns.

Key Features

Schooling the Violent Imagination examines theories of violence and their application to educational practice and child development.

The book connects violent imagination to broader social issues including sexism, racism and drug use in modern culture.

Schostak explores how myths, folktales and everyday narratives shape violent thinking patterns and influence individual action.

This Routledge Revivals edition reissues the classic 1986 text with continued relevance to contemporary psychology and education studies.
