Who Controls Education?

The Rising Power of Vested Interests in Europe

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book explores the role vested interests play in shaping European education policy, often at the expense of children. Interest groups are powerful, users of education are not. The consequence of this inequality in organisational power is explored in this book for the first in time in over forty years.
