"Compensatory Legitimation" in Greek Educational Policy: An Explanation for the Abortive Educational Reforms in Greece in Comparison with Those in France.
Persianis, Panayiotis
Comparative Education, v34 n1 p71-84 Mar 1998
Examines the political dynamics of planning and implementing educational reforms in Greece, with comparisons to France. Argues that, as in France, the state's concern for "compensatory legitimation" provides a better tool than those advanced by sociologists or historians for explaining Greece's many failed educational reforms. Compares strategies of compensatory legitimation in Greece and France. Contains 30 references. (Author/SV)
