Disparity and Inequality in Education: The Crippling Legacy of Coleman.
Murphy, James
British Journal of Sociology of Education, v2 n1 p61-70 Mar 1981
Stressing that class disparity in selective and higher education endures from one society to another irrespective of national differences in politics, ideology, or historical experience, the article examines the postwar debate on education and equality. Emphasis is placed on problems associated with J. S. Coleman's assessments of educational quality. (DB)
