Description

2020 Outstanding Book Award Honorable Mention from Division B (Curriculum Studies) of the American Educational Research Association
Researching Resistance: Public Education After Neoliberalism serves two vital functions. First, it explores, explicates, and encourages critical qualitative research that engages the arts and born-digital scholarship. Second, it offers options for understanding neoliberalism, revealing its impact on communities, and resisting it as ideology, practice, and law. The book delves into

- strategies for engaging neoliberalism
- the Black feminist cyborg theoretical assumptions and intentions of the ethnographic web-based film project
- the research and arts-based methodology that walks the fault line between film and ethnography, and
- the relationships between the researcher, the activist organizations, and the activism.

While the book will focus on neoliberalism within the realm of public education, the implications extend to many other areas of public life.

This is an excellent text for classes in qualitative research and public policy. It is the companion text to the digital native ethnographic film project entitled Public EducationParticipatory Democracy: After Neoliberalism.

Perfect for courses such as: Qualitative Research, Curriculum Studies, Women and Gender Studies, Race and Ethnic Studies, Sociology of Education, Social Justice and Education, Democracy and Civics, Community Engagement, Policy Studies, Service Learning, Education Reform, and Youth Advocacy.
