The Knowledge Base in Educational Administration

<p><b>This anthology summarizes and critiques the current knowledge base in the field of educational administration.</b></p><p>For scholars and practitioners who are interested in or are concerned about knowledge-based issues this book provides a needed antidote to narrow discussions of foundational issues.</p><p>The editors of this book maintain that discussions of a knowledge base in educational administration have typically been limited to a fairly traditional range of scholarly commentary reflective of the status quo within departments of educational administration over the past several decades. Other views such as feminist views race/ethnic-based orientations those that dispute the very idea of a knowledge base and those that simply expand the traditional range have been given little attention within the knowledge-base discourse. The purpose of this book is thus to open up this discourse by broadening the range of viewpoints being considered.</p>
