Political Interactions among Teachers: Sociocultural Context in the Schools.

Blase, Joseph J.

Urban Education, v22 n3 p286-309 Oct 1987

The political perspectives of teachers are examined in the context of interpersonal relationships in schools. Teachers develop a sensitivity to being controlled and manipulated by administrators, parents, and students. Teachers develop protectionistic political interactions to each other. Knowledge of the politics and culture of work permit more insightful educational reforms. (VM)
