Radical perspectives for transformative social studies education.

This book is recommended for educators seeking to challenge traditional methods and explore innovative ways to teach social studies. The collection of essays offers insights into critical and radical theories and practices that can inform teaching and learning. The book highlights alternative perspectives for social studies education, such as disability studies and critical race theory, which can help educators move away from a reproductive framework towards a more critical examination of historical constructions and contemporary social realities. The book is a timely contribution to the current discourse on radical teaching and critical pedagogy.

Description

Critical Theories, Radical Pedagogies, and Social New Perspectives for Social Studies Education begins with the assertion that there are emergent and provocative theories and practices that should be part of the discourse on social studies education in the 21st century. Anarchist, eco-activist, anti-capitalist, and other radical perspectives, such as disability studies and critical race theory, are explored as viable alternatives in responding to current neo-conservative and neo-liberal educational policies shaping social studies curriculum and teaching. Despite the interdisciplinary nature the field and a historical commitment to investigating fundamental social issues such as democracy, human rights, and social justice, social studies theory and practice tends to be steeped in a reproductive framework, celebrating and sustaining the status quo, encouraging passive acceptance of current social realities and historical constructions, rather than a critical examination of alternatives. These tendencies have been reinforced by education policies such as No Child Left Behind, which have narrowly defined ways of knowing as rooted in empirical science and apolitical forms of comprehension. This book comes at a pivotal moment for radical teaching and for critical pedagogy, bringing the radical debate occurring in social sciences and in activist circles-where global protests have demonstrated the success that radical actions can have in resisting rigid state hierarchies and oppressive regimes worldwide-to social studies education.
