"Fellow Travellers" and "True Believers": A Case Study of Religion and Politics in Alberta Schools.
Taylor, Alison
Journal of Education Policy, v16 n1 p15-37 Jan-Feb 2001
In Canada, the United States, and England, educational policies favoring greater parental choice have renewed interest in religion's place in public schools; conversely, religious parents' lobbying for school choice has influenced educational policy. This paper explores change dynamics in Alberta, Canada, focusing on micropolitical program and policy contexts. (Contains 56 references.) (MLH)
