First published in 1980, this book argues that a theory of ideology
is essential to a theory of education. It relates developments in
the Marxist theory of ideology to the analysis of schooling in a
capitalist society. Beginning with an appraisal of the early
twentieth century liberal social theorists, including Weber,
Durkheim, Veblen and Mannheim, it demonstrates that the weakness of
their approaches arose from a failure to comprehend adequately the
nature of capitalism. It then outlines the state of the theory of
ideology at the time and applies the concept in an analysis of
contemporary schooling, concluding with a discussion of its
political implications. The application of the theory of ideology
offers important possibilities for a radical socialist strategy on
education.
