Ideological Innocence and Dialogue: A Critical Perspective on Discourse in the Social Studies.
Kickbusch, Kenneth W.
Theory and Research in Social Education, v13 n3 p45-56 Fall 1985
Current discourse about the qualitative state of social studies education is apolitical, diminishing opportunities for substantive change. A critical analysis of this discourse demonstrates the failure of the literature to interrogate the structures and beliefs behind surface meanings and values of social studies education in an advanced industrial society.
