The schools, which have spread around the globe, are strikingly similar regardless of the culture and economic conditions of the countries in which they have been institutionalized. Fuller and Rubinson have compiled 14 essays into a four-part book that addresses the critical question of what forces are driving the spread of mass schooling and discusses theories that attempt to describe the rise of mass schooling. Section 1 focuses on how popular demand for schooling transferred loyalty from the local community to the state. Section 2 looks at the relationship between the economy and the impact of schooling. Section 3 focuses on how economic conditions, class structures, and nonstate agencies impact the actions of the state in developing mass schooling. The last section addresses the institutional conditions that permit the state to play a creditable role in the expansion of schooling. This book has strong implications for students of educational policy development and public school finance. It will allow students to reflect on the reasons for schooling and the implications of schooling against commonly held beliefs.?-Choice ?There are many good nuggets in this collection.
