Education and Politics

"Education and Politics" explores how political ideologies and power structures profoundly shape education, influencing everything from curriculum to resource allocation. It reveals how education policy is often driven by political agendas, impacting what students learn and who has access to opportunities. Did you know that curriculum development can be a political battleground? Or that equitable access to education is viewed by many as a civil rights issue? The book examines the politicization of curriculum, analyzes inequalities in educational access, and dissects the political implications of accountability measures. It argues that understanding these dynamics is essential for fostering a more democratic and equitable educational system.

The book progresses from fundamental concepts to the politicization of curriculum, inequalities in access, and accountability measures, providing a comprehensive overview. This textbook uniquely approaches educational policy through a political science lens, encouraging critical examination of the motivations behind educational reforms. By equipping readers with knowledge of policy documents, legal rulings, and case studies, "Education and Politics" empowers educators, policymakers, and citizens to advocate for effective and equitable educational practices.
