Against Schooling: For An Education That Matters (The Radical Imagination)
“To say that Stanley Aronowitz is a national treasure is an understatement.Against Schoolingis vintage Aronowitz.Against Schoolingmakes a brilliant and impassioned argument for the necessity of creating new knowledges and social and cultural practices that do not repeat the privileging hierarchies of previous generations but enable individuals to become global as well as national citizens who refuse to accept the current regime of educational degradation. Aronowitz’s call for a protagonistic effort to bring teachers in higher education together with elementary and secondary school faculty in a common fight is one that we must take seriously if we want to save not only our schools but the very fabric of our social universe.”
