Summary This study, by more than 130 contributors, assesses the moves to decentralize educational administration. The text contains overviews by individual authors, and joint papers forming dialogues between different academic contenders. It provides a survey of educational policies and planning, and an analysis of the changes in England and Wales. Curriculum control, privatization and leadership issues are also debated. This book is one of four volumes which consider the educational dilemmas facing governments, professional educators and practising administrators in the current educational climate. T.
