  • "In recent years, much curriculum debate has focused less on wider issues related to the purpusses of education and more on the contet and 'delivery' of school curricula themselves, including new and revised national curricula. Schooling, Society and Curriculum seeks to return curriculum studies to critical, generic debates about formal education and ist relationships to the wider society, reminding readers of the key curriculum debates that have been present since formal state education began and reassessing them in the context of current curricular trends and policies. Brevely: It offers a long-overdue reassessment and realignment of Curriculum Studies in the UK and international contexts. Tfhe approach goes further, however, by placing such debates within a future-orientated perspective and focusing on some of the key emerging issues of the tewenty-first century. These include issues of globalization and reconstructed nationalism; of poverty and wealth; a revived interest and understanding of what it means to be a good citizen; of cultural pluralism and intolerance; the rapid development of digital technology and its impact on learning; changing relationships between the 'state' and the 'market' and their impact on formal education and - centrally - of what it is that young people need from a school curriculum in order to develop as happy, socially just adults in an uncertain and rapidly-changing world."
