Education and the Community (Routledge Library Editions: Sociology of Education)

First published in 1975, this book is the first to set out a blueprint for how schools can move from a ‘traditional’ to a ‘community’ base at local authority level. After presenting a historical analysis of the organisational development of the local education authority, it goes on to put forward a detailed proposal for an across-the-board, radically reformed education service at pre-school, school, post-school and college levels. Finally, it locates such a reformed ‘community education’ system in the context of community development at large.

This volume examines modern sport in its social context and concludes that it is beset with over-commercialised motives, damaged by dangerous political alignments and marred by wrongheaded social values. The book provides a thought-provoking analysis and offers new insights into why and how modern sport has evolved into its present dominant position. It calls for radical reforms in the structure of, and attitudes towards, sport.
