The Role of Authority and Reason in Education and Educational Administration.

Maddock, Trevor

Educational Administration Quarterly, v27 n1 p90-102 Feb 1991

Replies to Burbules's criticism of Maddock's 1990 article, "The Relevance of Philosophy to Educational Administration," which critiques Burbules's 1989 essay on the same topic. Burbules confuses matters of relevance with the communication of relevance and fails to distinguish between authoritative and authoritarian positions. Includes 32 references. (MLH)
