Condition: Sehr gut. 1. 532 S. The Politics of Irish Primary Education: Reform in an Era of Secularisation offers a comprehensive examination of educational policy reform in Ireland during a period of profound social and cultural change. As calls for reducing the role of the Catholic Church in Irish primary schools have gained momentum, the book explores the political, social and institutional forces shaping educational reform. Drawing on lessons from major societal debates such as same-sex marriage and abortion reform, the study analyses how civil society organisations, activists, political actors, the media and public opinion influence policy outcomes. The book presents extensive original research, including interviews with key decision-makers, previously unpublished data from the Church and the Department of Education, parliamentary surveys and detailed examinations of reforms concerning school divestment, admissions policies and curriculum development. The result is a valuable and detailed account of how educational change is negotiated in a modern democratic society.
