Authors:
- Analyzes neoliberalism and the ways it is able to transform the public sphere as well as what this means for social movements resisting the omnipresent influence of neoliberal logic
- Argues that using the language of democracy to push anti-democratic policies is not just a cynical attempt to sell unpopular policies but rather signifies a redefinition of democratic practices and understanding under neoliberalism
- Uses Chicago school reform efforts to show that current struggles are not over reform policies but instead over the meaning of democracy in neoliberal times
Part of the book series: New Frontiers in Education, Culture, and Politics (NFECP)
