Caught in the Crossfire

Viac o knihe

The book explores the shift in American society from celebrating childhood to viewing children as threats to social values. It highlights how behaviors are increasingly criminalized in schools, leading to more children in penal and psychiatric facilities. Grossberg challenges the notion that these issues stem solely from parenting or family crises, instead linking them to broader economic ideologies and cultural conflicts. He argues that these transformations are part of a larger effort to define American uniqueness and modern culture.
