The Crisis of the Meritocracy

Britain's Transition to Mass Education since the Second World War

Peter Mandler

Discover how the landscape of education has drastically changed in the past century. From only 2% of the population attending university pre-WWII, to now where half of all young people go to university. The Crisis of the Meritocracy explores the revolution in attitudes and expectations that caused this shift. As society places greater importance on education and upward mobility, the tension between meritocracy and democracy grows. This book is an essential read for those seeking to understand the larger forces at play in the education system.

@Sleek_Otter Best book on the politics of education is Crisis of the Meritocracy by Peter Mandler; on how things work + constitutional stuff Peter Hennessy's Whitehall is a classic; Nick Timmins Five Giants is brilliant on the welfare state.      источник
