Abstract

The article investigates the contentious relationship between economics and social studies and considers the extent to which the dominant narratives and methodological approaches in economics are compatible with ambitious views of equity in civics education. Tensions between social studies and economics are described. These include differing views on the role of government, democracy, and equality, as well as economics’ “imperious mindset” (Heilbroner, 1991, p. 463). After identifying these tensions, the article devotes significant space to recent scholarship that can bridge the civics-economics divide and introduce the kind of equity work being called for in social studies education.

女王属于民主国家吗?公民与经济学教育的偏离与可能性

本文调查了经济学和社会研究之间有争议的关系，并考虑了经济学中占主导地位的叙述和方法方法在多大程度上与公民教育中雄心勃勃的公平观点相一致。社会研究和经济学之间的紧张关系被描述。这包括对政府角色、民主和平等的不同看法，以及经济学的“专横心态”(Heilbroner, 1991, p. 463)。在确定了这些紧张关系之后，这篇文章花了大量的篇幅来介绍最近的奖学金，这些奖学金可以弥合公民经济学的鸿沟，并引入社会研究教育中所呼吁的那种公平工作。
