A history of London University in the second half of the nineteenth century, focusing on political as well as academic developments. In 1858 the University - in reality an examining board - opened its non-medical examinations to candidates irrespective of how they prepared themselves. At the same time, graduates could join the newly established Convocation, forfour decades empowered to veto changes in the University's Charter, choose a quarter of the governing body the Senate, and, from 1868, elect the University's MP. This book analyses the delicate and often stressful relations of Senate and Convocation, covering the long struggle over admission of women to degrees; the contribution of the University to secondary education; the establishment of the University's seat in the House of Commons, and the subsequentelections of Members. Later chapters describe the extended campaign to change the institution into an orthodox university, and the political struggles and academic manoeuvring that attended the process. F.M.G. WILLSON has retired from an academic and administrative career in Zimbabwe, North America, London and Australia.

Bildung ist mehr als "Wissen" im Sinne von Know that. Mit Hilfe der Erkenntnismöglichkeiten der historisch arbeitenden Geisteswissenschaften wird in diesem Buch der Zusammenhang zwischen verschiedenen Regulierungskräften und früheren Ausformungen des Bildungsbegriffs vor Augen geführt. Die gewonnenen Einsichten werden auf zwei aktuelle Problemkreise bezogen: Bildung und Gesellschaft sowie Bildung und Bildungssystem. Education signifies more than "knowledge" in the sense of knowing facts. Using epistemic resources from the history and the humanities, this book reveals the connections between various regulatory regimes and past formulations of the concept of education. The insights it offers focus on two current problem areas: education and society, and education and the educational system.

De nombreux chercheurs se sont intéressés, en France, au champ de la formation d'adultes et ont produit, au cours des quarante dernières années, une masse impressionnante de travaux. Cette production de recherche reste malheureusement très largement invisible. En effet, morcellement, dispersion, hétérogénéité, marginalité semblent les qualificatifs les plus appropriés pour la décrire. Que sait-on, qu'a-t-on appris, sur quoi peut-on s'appuyer pour aller chercher plus loin ? Ce livre présente un premier bilan des travaux effectués, d'une part à l'Institut national pour la formation des adultes (INFA) qui pose, dans les années soixante, les bases d'une recherche pluridisciplinaire dans un champ neuf ; d'autre part à travers les thèses soutenues depuis le début des années soixante-dix jusqu'à nos jours. 40 ans de recherche en formation d'adultes s'adresse aux chercheurs en éducation et, plus largement, à toute personne qui s'intéresse aux problématiques et aux évolutions de la formation en France

This book is a narrative study of the lives and experiences of sixty-eight Black collegians in a set of northern private colleges in the Midwest between 1945 and 1965. Through oral histories and archival material, this text documents and reflects on their experiences in the racially isolated, northern, rural towns in Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, and Western Pennsylvania. This history illuminates both the empowerment of these collegians and the persistent challenges of enacting institutional values in the face of resistance from both outside and within. Stewart seeks to understand the nature of progress toward pluralistic diversity in college environments characterized by the paradox of racial homogeneity and interracial engagement. In this way, the complex interplay of social movements, institutional context, individual identities, and the experiences of marginalized students in postsecondary education are more effectively demonstrated.
