CURRICULUM STUDIES: HOW CAN WE DEAL WITH THE CONCEPTS OF MODERN AND POSTMODERN?

The text does a first collection, more or less systematic, of groups which, connected with the GT Curriculum of ANPEd, have been working in the field of Curriculum Studies at our universities and what these groups mean by and how they use the expressions modern, modernity, postmodern, etc. It begins with a synoptic chart of the contributions sent by the groups, going on to a brief analysis of the relationships between modernity, postmodernity and poststructuralism; of the place of the real when a discursive perspective is taken; and the relationships between the theory and the empiric.
