- catalog abstract "Annotation Since the inception of charter school reform in the U.S. in the early 1990s, its proponents and opponents have emphasized its privatizing and market-oriented approach. Smith (education, Bates College, Lewiston, Maine) argues that charter schools also provide democratic opportunities for public education, such as equalized and expanded choice, inclusive decision making, and localized accountability. A case study of the Winthrop Academy charter high school in Massachusetts investigates how the ideals of deliberative democracy are carried out in the practice of civic education. For policy makers and readers with an interest in education reform. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com).".
