Beskrivning
This innovative monograph is concerned with a set of inter-related problems associated with the nature of knowledge, how it is produced within intellectual fields and the implications of those things for education and the transmission of knowledge in the classroom. It covers issues in the sociology of knowledge, the educational system and policy, social differences in educational attainment, educational research and teaching. At various points it critically engages with the ideas of major thinkers such as Durkheim, Bernstein and Bourdieu and others and draws on contributions representing an emerging new approach in the sociology of education associated with recent work by John Beck, Karl Maton, Johan Muller, Michael F.D. Young and others. This provocative and challenging book will undoubtedly stimulate debate among educationists across the world.

Recensioner i media

'Towards the Sociology of Truth should be read by every sociologist of education. It is an argument for a social realist account of knowledge, an attempt to wrestle with and reconcile some of the deep fissures in sociological thinking, and a reclamation of all that is best in the discipline through an analytical history of its intellectual antecedants. This book will prove a challenge to many in the discipline and, because it cannot be ignored, will be indispensable to debates about the nature of sociology of education and the claims to knowledge that it makes.' Hugh Lauder, Professor of Education and Political Economy, University of Bath, UK
