The Next Century: The Impact of Social and Economic Trends on the Arts in Education.

Urice, John K.

Design for Arts in Education, v90 n5 p36-43 May-Jun 1989

Identifies current trends that are moving society away from supporting an improved role for the arts in education. Discusses the blurring of the demarcation between popular culture and high art, the economic context in which students are trained for work, taxpayer pressure for efficiency, and deemphasis on live art.
