Full Abstract
Most educational theorists in North America recognize Schooling in Capitalist America (1976) by Samuel Bowles and Herbert Gintis, which explored the role of education and schooling in the United States, as a major scholarly contribution to Marxist educational theory (Pinar, 1996). A decade before the growing shift in radical educational theory from Marxist theories to postmodern and post-structural theories, Schooling in Capitalist America set the stage for a transitory period in Marxist educational scholarship identified as the ‘new historical revisionist’ movement (Berlowitz, 1977).
