Abstract
Currently, the curriculum is at the center of the formal political agenda in many Western countries. In these circumstances, it is important to review the state of sociological knowledge with regard to curriculum, for work on school curriculum remains severely undertheorized. In particular, the issue of relationships within subject matter remains unexplored and untheorized. This article focuses on the question of the internal form of curriculum and develops some initial theoretical frameworks.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
