A volume in Critical Constructions: Studies on Education and SocietySeries Editor: Curry Stephenson Malott, West Chester University of PennsylvaniaThe word fundamentalism usually conjures up images of religions and their most zealous followers. Much less often theword appears in connection with political economy. The phrase "free market" gives the connotation that capitalism isfreedom. Neoliberalism is the rise of global free-market fundamentalism. It reaches into nearly every aspect of our dailylives as it seeks to dominate and eliminate the last vestiges of public domains through wanton privatization andderegulation. It degrades all that is public. The good news is that a global community of resistance continues to struggleagainst neoliberal oppression. Formal and informal education entities contribute to these struggles, offering visions andstrategies for creating a better future. ?The purpose of this volume is twofold. Several contributors will highlight how the neoliberal agenda is impacting educational policy formation, teaching and learning,and relationships between K-12 schools and communities. Other contributors will highlight how the global community has gradually become conscious of the ideologicaldoctrine and how it is responsible for human suffering and misery.The volume is needed because the growing body of educational research linked to exploring the impact of neoliberalism on schools and society fails to provideconceptual or historical understanding of this ideology. It is also an important scholarly intervention because it provides insights as to why educators, scholars, and otherglobal citizens have challenged the intrusion of market forces over life inside K-12 schools.Teacher educators, schoolteachers, and anyone who yearns to understand what is behind the debilitating trend of commercial forces subverting humanizing educationalprojects would benefit from this volume. Activists, educators, youth, and scholars who seek strategies and visions for building democratic schools and a society wouldconsider this volume essential reading.
