Politics, Economics, and School Reform.

Mumper, Michael

Urban Education, v23 n2 p208-13 Jul 1988

Reviews "The Politics of School Reform 1870-1940" by Paul Peterson, and "Power and the Promise of School Reform: Grassroots Movements During the Progressive Era" by William J. Reese. Notes that these two studies serve to bring politics, and political variables, back into the debate over educational policymaking, but are seriously limited by a narrow point of view. (FMW)
