Curriculum, Culture and Society
Abstract
This paper discusses the social and cultural roles of the curriculum – as an invention of the modern school education – particularly in relation to the perceptions, meanings and uses of space and time in Modernity. By being at the service of the episteme of order and representation, the curriculum has decisively contributed to the constitution of the modern subject. As today we are experiencing fast and important space-temporal modifications, it is important to know not only the new roles of the curriculum, but also the political implications of the extension of its concept into social and cultural realms situated beyond the school.
Key words: Curriculum, Culture, Michel Foucault, Modernity, Space and Time.Downloads
