Producing Inequality: Ideology and Economy in the National Reports on Education (AESA R. Freeman Butts Lecture-1986).
Apple, Michael W.
Educational Studies: A Journal in the Foundations of Education, v18 n2 p195-220 Sum 1987
Offers an analysis of the various national reports on education issued between 1983 and 1986. Argues that as a group, the reports are as much political as they are educational documents. Contends that the recommendations of the reports are built upon a vision of the future economy that is wrong and that the educational solutions offered are inappropriate. (JDH)
