Reconceptualising Lifelong Learning - Jackson, Sue (Birkbeck College, University of London, UK) a Burke, Penny Jane (Institute of Education, University of London, UK)

Arising from work by the Gender and Lifelong Learning Group of the Gender and Education Association, this book presents reconceptualisations of lifelong learning. It argues that the field of lifelong learning is based on certain hidden values and assumptions. It examines the mechanisms by which exclusionary discourses and practices are maintained.
