Promises to Keep: Cultural Studies, Democratic Education, and Public Life

by Greg Dimitriadis (Editor), Dennis Carlson (Editor)

This book takes a serious look at the erosion of democratic public life and public education, and offers directions for re-imagining, re-designing, and re-inventing the current system. Bridging the disciplines of film studies, postcolonial studies, curriculum theory, and politics, these essays suggest new possibilities for curriculum, and shed new light on what shape public education could take in coming decades.

This collection has a definite "Dimitriadis Touch" to it (and that's not a compliment), but I'm keeping it on my shelves ... for now ...
