Social Capital and Lifelong Learning is a new book by John Field
John Field is a leading international thinker in the lifelong learning field.
Social capital and lifelong learning are central to current policy concerns both in the UK and internationally. This book confirms the significance of social capital as an analytical tool, while challenging the basis on which current policy is being developed.
It offers a wealth of evidence on a topic that has become central to contemporary government; provides a detailed empirical investigation of the relationship between social capital, knowledge creation and lifelong learning and relates the findings to wider policy debates.
