Description
Social Control and Education examines foundational sociological models of human behaviour in society and their application to educational systems. This Routledge Library Edition explores the rise of compulsory schooling in Britain and the USA, tracing how education has functioned as an instrument of social control. The book analyses which aspects of this relationship have received scholarly attention in the sociology of education through the mid-1970s and identifies significant gaps in academic discourse. Essential for students and scholars of educational sociology, social theory and the history of schooling, this volume provides critical perspective on how educational institutions shape social order and individual development.

Traces the historical development of compulsory schooling systems in Britain and the USA with analytical depth.

Identifies key areas of focus and neglected topics within the sociology of education field through the 1970s.

Published by Routledge as part of the Library Editions: Education series, offering scholarly quality and accessibility.

Provides foundational concepts for understanding the relationship between social control mechanisms and formal education systems.
