{"product_id":"9781350336643","title":"Race, Racism and the Geography Curriculum by David Lambert","description":"Changes in the nature of knowledge   production, plus rapid social and cultural change, have meant that the   `curriculum question' - what is to be taught, and by extension, `whose knowledge'   - has been hotly contested. The question of what to teach has become more and more controversial.  This book asks: what is an appropriate curriculum response   to the acute, renewed interest in issues of race and racism? How   does a school subject like geography respond?The struggle over the school curriculum has   frequently been portrayed as being between educational `traditionalists' and   `progressives'. This book suggests a way out of this impasse. Drawing upon and extending insights from `social   realism', it explores what a Future 3 geography curriculum might look like - one that   recognizes the importance of the academic discipline as a source of   curriculum-making but at the same time avoids geographical knowledge becoming set in stone. The book focuses very   sharply on issues of race and racism, enabling teachers to engage in   curriculum making in geography that is racially literate.   The Foreword is written by Julian Agyeman, a former geography teacher in the UK and now Professor of Urban and Environmental Policy and Planning at Tufts University, USA.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56297898475893,"sku":"9781350336643","price":24.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781350336643.jpg?v=1762781862","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781350336643","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
