Description

Explore the historical and modern debates surrounding character education in the United States with this scholarly analysis from Routledge. Authors Peter Smagorinsky and Joel Taxel examine how the concept of character education has been shaped over time, specifically focusing on the movement that gained momentum in the 1990s. This book looks at the ideological foundations of different character education conceptions. It traces how current discussions are part of much longer debate streams regarding national purpose and classroom instruction. By studying these discourse streams, readers can better understand the roots of modern culture wars in the educational system. This text provides a deep look into how history and ideology continue to influence how schools approach character development today.
