Creativity and Democracy in Education (eBook, ePUB)

Practices and politics of learning through the arts

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

In this book Jeff Adams and Allen Owen explore creativity conceptually, historically and metaphorically within a variety of UK and international contexts, and in each case consider its relationship to notions of democracy in education. The book seeks to explore how democratic educational models survive under the neoliberal hegemony, and specifically the new democratic pedagogical practices that have developed through the creative disciplines, in response and as a resistance to corporatisation and marketization.
