By examining the conditions in which school knowledge is selected and alternative curricular ideas are realized, Managing Diversity illuminates how cultural and political struggles intersect with institutional processes and commercial and professional decision-making to substantially moderate the impact of textbook politics and curricular reforms on what is actually taught in schools.
