First is the issue of purpose. Social studies and history education have historically suffered from multiple goals. Often, social studies is earmarked as the curricular domain responsible for the educating of citizens (although one might argue that educating good citizens is the responsibility of all educators, no matter what is the focus of their subject area). Others have suggested that social studies concerns the teaching of a set of subject areas, which can be narrowly conceived or broad. In the US, for example, there are some who argue for the teaching of history, economics, and geography alone. Others argue for a broader view. For example, the National Council for the Social Studies (NCSS), the leading US organization in the field, lists anthropology, archeology, economics, geography, history, law, philosophy, political science, psychology, religion, and sociology as the core areas of social studies focus, complemented by appropriate content from the humanities, mathematics, and natural sciences. Thus, social studies teacher education similarily faces the challenge of purpose, goals, and objectives. Should the preparation focus on preparing teachers to teach skills for citizenship, disciplinary content, disciplinary skills, an integrated approach, and/or community service? These goals, often competing, complicate the role of the social studies teacher educator.

The emergence of this second system had also serious deficiencies. As sociological research on the malfunctions of the ‘socialist’ welfare states has evidenced it (Deacon and Szalai, 1990; Kochanowicz, 1997; Atal, 1998; Lessenich, 2000), those who, for a range of varied reasons, could not participate, became increasingly dependent on the state that gradually intensified their defenselessness, instead of mitigating it. With the spreading and tacit acceptance of the regulatory role of the informal economy, the nonparticipating groups were designated as ‘misusers’ of the public resources, and cuts in assistance for them were approved on a mass scale. Thus, the spreading of participation in the informal economy gave rise to serious social divisions which, amid the troublesome economic conditions of the post-1989 years, eventually became an open war between the ‘non-diligent’ poor and the ‘industrious’ nonpoor.
