This is the theme of the May-June 2006 issue of the International Journal of Lifelong Education.
The International Journal of Lifelong Education provides a forum for debate on the principles and practice of lifelong, adult, continuing, recurrent and initial education and learning, whether in formal, institutional or informal settings. Common themes include social purpose in lifelong education, and sociological, policy and political studies of lifelong education. The journal recognises that research into lifelong learning needs to focus on the relationships between schooling, later learning, active citizenship and personal fulfilment, as well as the relationship between schooling, employability and economic development.
Some titles in the current issue:
- Lifelong education: beyond the learning society
- Beyond the learning society: globalisation and the moral imperative for reflective social change
- Understanding the mechanisms of neoliberal control: lifelong learning, flexibility and knowledge capitalism
- Communication and creativity: methodological shifts in adult education
- Beyond the abstractions! Adult education research from idealism to critical social science
- Lifelong learning and the limits of tolerance
