The Growth of Community Education in the United Kingdom.
Watson, Keith
International Review of Education, v26 n3 p273-87 1980
This paper explores the concepts of "community" and "community education," traces the growth of different models of community education in the United Kingdom, and highlights some of the issues, weaknesses, and problems arising from its development. Two separate movements, evolutionary and revolutionary, are identified--school-based and community-based, respectively. (Author/SJL)
