Movements or Institutions? The French "mouvements pedagogiques."
Beattie, Nicholas
Comparative Education, v34 n3 p299-312 Nov 1998
Describes the origins and characteristics of the heterogeneous French advocacy associations known as "mouvements pedagogiques." Draws on Alberoni's model of social movements and institutions. Argues that this phenomenon, which appears a uniquely French response to a highly centralized system, illustrates a universal need to "invest emotion" in the educative process. Contains 32 references and a list of 18 associations. (SV)
