Book Synopsis Reconstructing American Education by : Michael B. Katz
Book excerpt: "...A powerful interpretation of the uses of history in educational reform and of the relations among democracy, education, and the capitalist state. How did the American education take shape? What can a historian say about recent criticisms and proposals for improvement? What drives the politics of educational history? Katz shows how the reconstruction of America's educational past can be used as a framework for thinking about current reform."--Back cover.
