First Published in 1969. The ideas of Charles Fourier have long
fascinated economists, sociologists and political scientists.
Children play a most important part in his Utopian schemes. This
volume focuses on educational theory of Fourier.
Originally published in 1969, this book aims to show that Charles
Fourier has much to say that is of interest to modern
edcationlists. Fourier hardly ever figures in histories of
education because only recent developments in educational practice
have shown his ideas to be of topical and practical importance to
the schoolteacher and the planner of today. Fourier devised a
system of education to suit a self-infulgent, democratic society,
in which children's energies could be used in ways which were both
socially useful and personally rewarding. He was a pioneer advocate
of comprehensive education, so as to establish harmy between
classes. He urged vocational training and guidance, so as to
establish harmony between men and their work. He devised close
links between education and industry, to bring pleasure into both
school and work and to integrate the two. He was one of the first
to plan social service to the community by children. This prophetic
though eccentric writer, sometimes extravagant, often amusing, but
always endearing, who has already exerted much influence on
socialist theory, deserves to be better known by students of
education.

First Published in 1992. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor and
Francis, an informa company.
In recent years, economic and demographic changes have brought into
question the adequacy of initial education programs for continuous
employment. While the primary focus of debate has been on creating
structures for continuing education and training linked to the
economic needs of society, arguments and movements have also been
made for wider access to all forms of learning.
Drawing on the experiences of numerous educational systems, "Adult
Learners, Education and Training" addresses the major themes of the
ongoing debates: who participates in what forms of education and
training and how access can increased and widened; the relationship
between economic development, education and training; the education
and training developed by social movements; and the changes sought
in the formal sector of provision.
