Reconsidering Teacher Alienation: A Critique of "Teacher Burnout in the Public Schools."

Vavrus, Michael

Urban Review, v19 n3 p179-88 1987

Research on teacher burnout, stress, and alienation lacks emphasis on the social milieu in which teachers work. In his book, Anthony Dworkin adopts the subjective approach, eliminating any analysis of actual teacher working conditions. Furthermore, he muddles Marx's theory of alienation of labor. (Author/BJV)
