Contemporary reform initiatives in public education have included
concerns with large scale, systemic reform in which the
superintendent was a pivotal player. Yet much of the research
attention is focused on the principalship or on state-level
policymaking. This volume attempts to correct this lack of
attention on the superintendency by stimulating conversations about
new ways to conceive of the role. The empirical and conceptual
analyses reported in this book are outcomes of the UCEA Joint
Program Center for the Study of the Superintendency. The chapters
report on studies that focus on the issues of recruitment,
diversity, district/community relations, power and politics, and
transformation. This annual review is designed to provide a forum
for empirical and conceptual investigations of organizational
behaviour in schools and school districts, as well as their
institutional environments. Specifically, the review attempts to
inform educational management and policy by integrating
perspectives from sociology, psychology, economics, political
science, and management.
