Abstract

This book discusses the relationships between education policy and education research. The book contributes to important questions for those with a stake in education research; what is the role of policy in shaping research, what kinds of research are valued, and what effects do these policy and research agendas have on education? These questions are not new to the field of education research, but as Lather demonstrates, still relevant. Through five chapters and a postface, Lather advocates a qualitative approach to education policy and research informed by feminism and a commitment to social justice.
