Jane Thompson
More titles on Social Change |
![]() |
Jane Thompson’s writings have influenced and inspired the work of a generation of radical practitioners in adult and community education in Britain and overseas.
This new book of essays reflects her concern for working-class and women’s education, for social justice, active citizenship and for progressive social change. It will be useful to students on adult and continuing education courses at Diploma and Masters level, and to practitioners in adult learning and community education concerned about disadvantage and issues of inclusion and exclusion. It will be of relevance to staff development activity, conferences and workshops in which matters of curriculum, political education, participatory learning, citizenship and social change are being discussed.
