Educational Politics from BelowWith this issue, we are pleased to inaugurate a new feature in Educational Policy. Michael W Apple, John Bascom Professor of Education at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and a member of our advisory editorial board since the journal's beginning 13 years ago, will regularly write an essay on significant new books or documents that deserve critical attention. "Reviewing Policy"will go beyond the book review format to provide a stimulating look at current scholarship and policy. All too often, the justifiable demands on policy makers and researchers to engage in action immediately keep people from taking the time to reflect on the ethical, political, and educational implications of specific policies and practices. One of the aims of "Reviewing Policy " will be to engage in exactly that kind of critical reflection. There is no one who can provide a better critical perspective than Michael Apple. He is one of the pioneers of the critical pedagogy movement and has worked for more than three decades to provide a constructive yet critical examination of policy and practice in education.
