Community Education and Neoliberalism

Mehr zum Buch

The book examines the impact of neoliberalism on community education in Ireland, highlighting a shift away from its foundational principles of collective equality. It discusses how community education has become increasingly influenced by labor market demands, vocational training, and market forces, often conflicting with the desires of practitioners and participants. This transformation has led to significant tensions within the community education sector, challenging the independence and original values that once defined it.
