Foucault and Education : Disciplines and Knowledge Paperback / softback
Edited by Stephen J. (Institute of Education, University of London, UK) Ball
Part of the Routledge Library Editions: Michel Foucault series
Paperback / softback
Description
First published in 1990, this book was the first to explore Foucault's work in relation to education, arguing that schools, like prisons and asylums, are institutions of moral and social regulation, complex technologies of disciplinary control where power and knowledge are crucial. Original and challenging, the essays assess the relevance of Foucault's work to educational practice, and show how the application of Foucauldian analysis to education enables us to see the politics of educational reform in a new light.
