Two persistent dilemmas haunt school reform: curriculum politics and classroom constancy. Both undermined the 1960s new social studies, a dynamic reform movement centered on inquiry, issues, and social activism. Dramatic academic freedom controversies ended reform and led to a conservative restoration.Â On one side were teachers and curriculum developers; on the other, conservative activists determined to undo the revolutions of the 1960s. The episode brought a return to traditional history, a turn away from questioning, and the re-imposition of authority.Â Engagingly written and thoroughly researched, The Tragedy of American School Reform offers a provocative perspective on current trends.
