State Policy-Making and School Reform: Influences and Influentials.

Mazzoni, Tim L.

Journal of Education Policy, v9 n5&6 p53-73 Sep-Dec 1994

Due to massive reform initiatives, American states have become major policy makers for public schools. Examines, from a state and a political-influence perspective, the causes, processes, and consequences of the decade-long "education excellence" movement. Places events in historical context, draws upon research findings, and applies an open-systems viewpoint. (130 references) (MLH)
