Winner of the AAACE Cyril O. Houle Award This book re-imagines the
essence and role of adult education at both the individual and
societal levels. It provides arguments for understanding adult
education as a process of agency and empowerment, which has not
only instrumental but intrinsic and transformative roles to play.
This book brings together ideas from the capability approach with
insights from recognition theory; the embeddedness approach; the
political economic perspective for understanding public and private
goods and the common goods perspective. The analysis draws on data
from large-scale international studies - alongside qualitative data
- and adopts a wide-ranging European comparative perspective. The
book develops original instruments for measuring different
dimensions of adult education as a common good, and its realisation
in different social contexts. It is aimed at academics, students,
practitioners, and policy makers interested in adult and/or higher
education and the social justice perspective to human life.
