Curriculum Studies as an International Conversation

<p>Examining Curriculum Studies from an international perspective this book focuses on the relations between the Anglo-Saxon and Latin American educational traditions. Informed by William F. Pinar’s conceptualization of curriculum as <i>currere</i> Johnson-Mardones reconsiders curriculum as an international conversation and advances an intercultural dialogue among educational traditions to put forth a more comprehensive and inclusive theory of curriculum. Moving beyond the Anglo-Saxon space and into the Global South Johnson-Mardones brings in his own non-Western educational experience to the center of this inquiry and situates cosmopolitanism as a necessary but complex component of Curriculum Studies.</p>
