The complex arguments of de Tocqueville, Dewey, Marx, and many others help clarify how the market has pierced classrooms and libraries with advertising and marketing\u2014and why this is of concern in the interests of democracy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Libraries, Classrooms, and the Interests of Democracy:\u00a0 Marking the Limits of Neoliberalism by Dr. John Buschman, Dean, University Libraries, has just been released by\u00a0Scarecrow\/Rowman &amp; Littlefield (https:\/\/rowman.com\/ISBN\/9780810885295).
