Today, not only do most people over fifteen have basic reading and writing skills, but 20 percent of the population attends some form of higher education. What are the effects of such radical, large-scale change? David Baker argues that the education revolution has transformed our world into a schooled society-that is, a society that is actively created and defined by education. Drawing on neo-institutionalism, The Schooled Society shows how mass education interjects itself and its ideologies into culture at large.EducationSocial aspectsSocial changeEducation and globalizationEducationHILCCSocial SciencesHILCCEducation, Special TopicsHILCCEducationSocial aspects.Social change.Education and globalization.EducationSocial SciencesEducation, Special Topics306.43Baker David1952 January 5-1190390AU-PeELAU-PeELAU-PeELBOOK9910786657903321The schooled society3818943UNINA
