Unlike much material available at the time, The Social Subjects Within the Curriculum (originally published in 1995) stands back from the issues of implementing the National Curriculum. Instead, it poses key questions about the ability of such a centralised system to provide an integrated social and economic education for future citizens.Taking the cross-curricular themes as identified in the NCC curriculum guidance as starting points, the various contributors analyse and criticise the approaches suggested, and in some cases, suggest alternatives or additions. Some of the questions posed are: What is this new curriculum attempting to achieve in the social education of 5–13-year-olds? How does it compare with previous programmes? How does it relate to the economic and social developments in which young people live? This book will be a valuable resource for students and researchers of education.
