Across the world, a number of long-term trends - globalization, marketization, managerialism - are now impacting on national education policies. Here, Mike Bottery shows how, paradoxically, these forces are making education both more centralized and more fragmented. In this magisterial study of educational policy and practice, he shows the dangers this creates and, in response, how to create a more humane and democratic education system.
The changing global and policy context; the strategic response; the public/private debate; management strategies; return of community values; impact of equality and citizenship; McDonaldization; role of the professional; new ethics of leadership; ethics of inclusion.
