Political and Economic Stress and the Social Reality of Schools

Lieberman, Ann

Teachers College Record, 79, 2, 259-67, Dec 77

The author discusses the thought and behavior of educators faced with the growing gap between scientific rationality (application of linear procedures, cause-effect relationships, and other simplistic systems) and control of the schools, in the one hand, and the growing body of knowledge about the social reality of schools which eschews such rationality.
