Editorial Reviews
Product Description
Cultural differences are not asserted through the specificity of dominant notions of race, gender, and class, but through a commitment to expanding dialogue and exchange across cultural lines as part of a wider attempt to deepen and develop democratic public life. This revised edition of the 1985 best-seller speaks eloquently to the need to attend to ever-present inequalities of education in the light of new political correctness, technology, and curricula.
About the Author
STANLEY ARONOWITZ is Professor of Sociology at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York.
