Title: The new political economy of urban education
Description: "Using Chicago as a case study of the interconnectedness of urban policies on housing, economic development, racial containment, and education, Lipman explores larger implications for equity, justice, and 'the right to the city.' She synthesizes scholarship in critical geography, urban sociology and anthropology, education policy, and critical analyses of race to develop a powerful critique of market-based solutions to education and urban problems and a hopeful alternative. By examining the cultural politics of why and how neoliberal policies resonate with people's lived experience, Lipman pushes the analysis toward a new educational and social paradigm rooted in radical political and economic democracy"--Abstract, p.
