Reviews
`A much needed rethinking of the variability of neoliberal education projects and neoliberal subjectivities in different national contexts.' Steven Ward, Professor of Sociology, Western Connecticut State University, USA `Considering how neoliberalism works and what it does to education in specific national and local settings has been a key concern of critical sociology of education for some time. This collection of essays by Reimers, Martinson and colleagues extends this work by engaging in the crucial task of detailing the political subjects that areã called up and curtailed in these conditions. Understanding the possibilities for responding to neoliberal tendencies in education remains a pressing task for scholars, activists and educators and so this collection provides important resources for thinking about and doing politics in and against neoliberal education.'ã Deborah Youdell, Professor of Sociology of Education, University of Birmingham, UK
