Implementing Legal Change in the Schools: Recent Research and Comments.
Goldberg, Steven S.
Planning and Changing, v17 n4 p209-15 Win 1986
Research suggests that federal legislation to resolve educational issues may be unrealistic and unworkable in practice. Parents and school officials accustomed to controlling educational decision making do not appreciate policy imposition from a distant bureaucracy; responses to policy may produce unequal or unfair outcomes when implemented at the district level. Includes 36 references. (MLH)
