This book introduces the student to the various phenomenological
and humanistic Marxist perspectives as they are being applied to
education and provides an account of the strengths and weaknesses
of these perspectives, drawing on a variety of disciplines in order
to explain the controversies described. The opening chapters deal
with the phenomenological perspective in the sociology of
education, discussing its adoption of a phenomenological model of
man, its use of anthropological studies, the importance of
classroom studies, and its rejection of the liberal philosophy of
education. The aim is to show the significance of these ideas for
education, with a discussion of the concept of alienation and
schooling, developments in Marxism such as the focus on the mode of
production and the labour process, and the political economy of
education.
