The Education of Adults in Scotland: Democracy and Curriculum.
Alexander, David
Studies in the Education of Adults, v26 n1 p31-49 Apr 1994

There is a danger in adult education becoming professionalized and "technicized" and allied with the purposes of centralized states and multinational institutions. (SK)
