In Badges and Incidents, Michael J. Kaufman embarks on an interdisciplinary exploration of American education law and pedagogy, delving into the intricate tapestry of law, education, history, political science, economics, psychology, and neuroscience. Through this comprehensive lens, Kaufman sheds light on the profound disconnect between the design of the American educational system and the realities of human existence and learning. He examines the founding principles of the nation and uncovers how a distorted portrayal of these principles has hindered the development of a truly democratic educational system. Kaufman exposes the impact of this distortion on crucial Supreme Court decisions, revealing their failure to facilitate the educational vision envisioned by the Founders. By contextualizing contemporary challenges and advocating for social constructivist pedagogy as the optimal path forward, Kaufman's study emerges as a valuable resource for advocates of educational equity. It equips them with the tools to navigate a contentious political landscape, with a steadfast focus on fostering future reform efforts.
