The book explores the impact of globalization and technological advancements on public education, particularly within the Los Angeles school system. Through ethnographic research and interviews, it reveals how the integration of new technologies, while intended to enhance competitiveness, often leads to rigid and controlling educational environments. Monahan highlights the emergence of unfavorable power dynamics that compel both students and educators to conform to increasingly structured systems, challenging the notion that these changes are wholly beneficial.
