We Gotta Get out of This Place: The Politics of What Works.
Shannon, Patrick
Reading Teacher, v53 n5 p394-96 Feb 2000
Outlines neoconservative, neoliberal, and liberal views of what works and what's good for children in reading education. Notes how each vies for the seminal role in defining the goals, means, and outcomes of reading education; but none discusses the complex social contexts of literacy learning and how unequal conditions in society might cause disparities and generally suppressed outcomes.
