Ritual Performance Enfeebled.

Gronn, Peter

Curriculum Inquiry, v18 n3 p321-24 Fall 1988

This essay is a response to Peter McLaren's response to the author's review of Peter McLaren's book "Schooling as a Ritual Performance." It asserts that McLaren has failed to address the three major criticisms of his book: an alleged forsaken entanglement with theory; an alleged hidden agenda; and an alleged reinforcement of dominant educational practice.
