  A New Orthodoxy, Old Problems: post-16 reforms
 
 
Title: A New Orthodoxy, Old Problems: post-16 reforms
Author: Avis, James
Appeared in: British journal of sociology of education
Paging: Volume 14 (1993) nr. 3 pages 245-260
Year: 1993
Contents: The paper explores the emerging consensus around post-compulsory education and training. It argues the notion of settlement needs to be developed to incorporate concepts of race and gender. It suggests a settlement is developing amongst the major political parties and other constituents who have a stake in post-compulsory education and training. These constituents share a common analysis of the problem facing education and training. Whilst these different groups have varying strategies to address the problem these are held under the sway of a capitalist logic. Post-Fordist arguments celebrate the progressive possibilities that inhere in a high skill, high trust economy; however, such optimism is easily co-opted and colonised by capitalist interests.
