Summary:
"Historically, moves and counter-moves to define "curriculum" have
occurred within highly contested terrain. This book studies
curriculum as a discursively produced historically, socially,
politically and economically inscribed epistemological space. This
epistemological approach to studying the knowing subject and research
positionality highlights the importance of understanding how we know
what we know. This book presents a three-pronged approach - bringing
together curriculum theory, educational research theory, and
exemplars of research projects. Curriculum Spaces is an avant-garde
research theory that analyzes the discursive production of knowing by
drawing upon a number of theories (e.g., critical discourse theories
and postmodern theories) to provide a unique lens on education in
this historic moment."--BOOK JACKET.
