Comparative Perspectives on the Role of Education in Democratization

by Noel F. McGinn

Published 1 April 1999

However important the school may be as a vehicle to institutionalize and perpetuate democracy, it has been largely ignored by contemporary scholars of democratization especially in developing and former socialist countries. This book draws on new research as well as established classics in helping to fill the gap and map out useful directions for comparative inquiry on the role of education in democratization and transitions from centralized authority.
