{"pk":63566,"title":"The Militarization and the Privatization of Public Schools","subtitle":null,"abstract":"This article offers a case study of the militarization of the Chicago Public Schools (CPS). First, we portray the landscape of militarization of education through the example of Chicago Public Schools. Second, we situate the militarization of schools within the current charter school movement. Third, we explain the impact of militarization on youth and critique the view that military academies and military programs are appropriate as public education models. Fourth, with a lengthy appendix, we provide readers with tools to work against the militarization of public schools within their communities.","language":"en","license":null,"keywords":[{"word":"Militarization"},{"word":"Charter Schools"},{"word":"Military Academies"},{"word":"Privatization"},{"word":"Discipline"},{"word":"Curriculum and Social Inquiry"},{"word":"Economics"},{"word":"Women's Studies"},{"word":"Ethnic, Cultural Minority, Gender, and Group Studies"}],"section":"Section 1: Central Issues in U.S. Public Education","is_remote":true,"remote_url":"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/4969649w","frozenauthors":[{"first_name":"Brian","middle_name":"","last_name":"Galaviz","name_suffix":"","institution":"Caucus of Rank and File Educators","department":""},{"first_name":"Jesus","middle_name":"","last_name":"Palafox","name_suffix":"","institution":"National Network Opposing the Militarization of Youth","department":""},{"first_name":"Erica","middle_name":"R.","last_name":"Meiners","name_suffix":"","institution":"Northeastern Illinois University","department":""},{"first_name":"Therese","middle_name":"","last_name":"Quinn","name_suffix":"","institution":"School of the Art Institute of Chicago","department":""}],"date_submitted":"2010-11-09T08:00:00Z","date_accepted":"2010-11-09T08:00:00Z","date_published":"2011-05-31T07:00:00Z","render_galley":null,"galleys":[{"label":"","type":"pdf","path":"https://journalpub.escholarship.org/bre/article/63566/galley/48898/download/"}]}
