商品簡介
The authors, academics and PhD candidates from the United States, study institutional change through the last forty years in the nation's second-largest school district, noting that recent histories have focused on successes and failures instead of the changes in public education. Chapter topics include demographic change and political uncertainty, the demise of local control, auditions of large-scale change, and structuring politics for a new institution. The title is a result of a four-year study of the last 40 years of educational reform in Los Angeles. Annotation c2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
