Six essays, presented by Apple (educational policy studies, U. of Wisconsin at Madison), analyze the way neoliberal and neoconservative processes of globalization are impacting education in four areas of crisis: the impact of global economic and ideological forces on definitions of important knowledge, literary practices, and values in education in the United States; the reconstruction of educational policies and practices in Japan in service of conservative nationalism and neoliberal marketization; struggles over economic, political, and cultural autonomy in Israel/Palestine; and neoliberal encroachment in Mexico. In addition to analyzing the negative impacts of globalization on education, chapters also highlight the ways in which critical and democratic educational and social movements have fought against these processes and pursued alternatives.
