The End of Consensus
2015 non-fiction book by Toby L. Parcel and Andrew J. Taylor
The End of Consensus: Diversity, Neighborhoods, and the Politics of Public School Assignments is a 2015 non-fiction book by Toby L. Parcel and Andrew J. Taylor, published by University of North Carolina Press.
The book covers how the Wake County Public School System program to socioeconomically balance its schools was abolished due to the local political climate. The authors state that the voters in Wake County, North Carolina liked ethnic diversity but disliked year round education and a lack of school choice, and voters opposed those school district rules.[1]
