Abstract | In this review essay, Claudia Ruitenberg discusses Trevor Norris's "Consuming Schools," René Arcilla's "Mediumism," and Martha Nussbaum's "Not for Profit." While the primary focus of each book is different--with Norris concentrating on the pressures of consumerism and commercialism on K-12 schooling, Arcilla analyzing modernist art and existentialist education, and Nussbaum emphasizing the role of the humanities in educating for democratic citizenship--each of the books in some way addresses the question of how people can be educated to resist consumerism and how education itself can resist being absorbed by consumerism. Here, Ruitenberg considers this common theme as well as the more specific question of what special role--if any--the arts might play in anticonsumerist education. (As Provided). |
