America's Addiction to Terrorism
ISBN: 9781583675717 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych.

While this may seem counterintuitive in our youth-obsessed culture, Giroux lays bare the grim reality of how our educational, social, and economic institutions continually fail young people. Their systemic failure is the result of what Giroux identifies as "four fundamentalisms" market deregulation, patriotic and religious fervor, the instrumentalization of education, and the militarization of society. We see the consequences most plainly in the decaying education system: schools are increasingly...
