Bourdieu and the Field of Education Policy

This book breaks new ground methodologically and in terms of its application of Bourdieu specifically within education policy studies in the context of globalization and provides a new approach to education policy studies, derived from Bourdieu, and suitable for today's context of multilevel governance and post-national pressures.
