This guide challenges common assumptions and the commodification of education. Within a global context it presents a progressive, egalitarian alternative.

What is knowledge? Who decides what is important? Who owns it? These are central themes that run through this title that aims to change perceptions and understanding of education. Using historical and contemporary examples, the authors examine the motivations, conflicts, and contradictions in education. In breaking down the structures, forces, and technologies involved they show how alternative approaches can emerge.Dr. Adam Unwin is Senior Lecturer in Business and Economics Education at University College London's Institute of Education.John Yandell is Senior Lecturer in Education at University College London Institute of Education.
