Beyond the Investment Narrative
Moss, Peter
Contemporary Issues in Early Childhood, v14 n4 p370-372 2013
The current policy interest in early childhood education and care is driven by an investment narrative, a story of quality and high returns emerging from a dominant neoliberal political economy. This short note expresses deep reservations about this narrative, and hints at another narrative that foregrounds democracy, experimentation and potentiality.
