Civil Society’s Education

Christopher Winch is Professor of Educational Philosophy and Policy at King’s College London, UK.

A long-overdue educational-philosophical task has been the methodical and thorough investigation of how State-regulated and formal types of education are interconnected with Civil Society educational activities. Christopher Winch’s new book fulfils this important task most informatively and insightfully, indeed, valuably.
