Adult Education in a World "on Speed."
Plumb, Donovan
Studies in Continuing Education, v21 n2 p141-61 Nov 1999
Emancipatory adult education resisted dominant forces by contesting their control of space and time. New technologies of speed enable dominant forces to control workers and consumers at a distance. Adult education must shift its understanding of the world from modern to postmodern categories to confront these new forms of dominance. (SK)
