Revising the American Character: Perspectives on Global Education and Multicultural Education.
Overview & Synopsis
Analyzes and compares two contemporary curricular responses to the need to redefine what constitutes "the American character:" (1) multicultural education; and (2) global education. Uses four cultural ethics (democracy, equal opportunity, fraternity, and consent) to establish a cultural mindset and to provide a lens through which both multicultural education and global education as reform movements can be understood.
