Originalbroschur. Condizione: Sehr gut. XXII, 242 S., Abb. Ein tadelloses Exemplar. - The Shifting Landscape of the American School District offers a new perspective on the American school district. The educational system of the United States has long been characterized by its tradition of local control, and the district has sym…bolized community involvement in education. Scholars have written insightful studies on individual city systems and school districts, but rarely has the districtas an organizational form itselfbeen the subject of scrutiny, and Americans have continued to take the district for granted as the primary unit of local schooling. In recent years reformers have also built many of their innovations upon the belief that it is the traditional, bureaucratic, hierarchical district that requires overhaul. The Shifting Landscape of the American School District seeks to challenge that perception. The editors argue that the pervasive view of district historythe notion that the school district is a holdover from the progressive reforms of the early twentieth centuryhas shrouded a fascinating story of the ways in which districts have evolved, innovated, and reacted in response to state and federal mandates, national reform movements, demographic shifts, desegregation, structural/organizational changes, and a shifting political climate. The chapters in this volume offer compelling evidence of the many ways that districts have expanded, contracted, integrated, consolidated, reorganized, and been torn apart over the past century. By covering a wide range of time periods, the authors are able to draw fascinating parallels between the past and present. - Contents: Preface: Re-examining the American School District: DAVID A.

Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. 4to (31 cm), VIII, 392 pp. Publisher's cloth (minor shelf-wear). Papers from the 1986 Summer Seminar, Empire, Province, and Village in Aztec History. The book is a comprehensive analysis of the economic and political geography of the Aztec empire. It is the fruit of a joint research project among eth…nohistorians, archaeologists, and art historians. The authors researched every town in the Aztec empire, recording a set of standard information for each. They drew a new map of the empire by first plotting local towns and city-states and then grouping these by province. This map, the first complete map of Aztec territory since Robert Barlow's 1949 study, reveals new principles of provincial organization.
