The Palgrave International Handbook on Adult and Lifelong Education and Learning
Learning expertise in practice
Building on Polanyi's insight in The Tacit Dimension that we know more than we can tell, this paper argues that we need to extend our understanding of learning to incorporate implicit learning, which is necessary in order to understand the process of becoming an expert and in so doing it points to the need to expand the theories of learning to include a philosophical dimension

Do we know enough about learning? Can we learn without knowing it
Many years ago Polanyi (1967) claimed that ‘I know more than I can tell’. Of course he was right, but the question remains: How do we learn those things that we cannot tell? Even, does the fact tha

From adult education to lifelong learning and beyond
Over the period of this journal's life the education of adults has been changed and developed in a wide variety of ways: the same phenomenon – adult learning – has been given a variety of meanings and the education of adults has assumed many titles. The aim of this paper is to unravel some of the changes that have occurred in this field during this time
Lifelong learning in Europe
This is a ‘big book’ with an Introduction, Conclusion and 15 chapters: there are 37 authors with no chapter being single-authored although there are chapters where one of the authors' views and ide

Lifelong learning has failed to integrate cultural difference and diversity into educational environments. Rather than facilitating immigrant adaptation, lifelong learning has been a vehicle for as

Widening participation, social mobility and the role of universities in a globalized world
A university education has long been seen as the gateway to upward social mobility for individuals from lower socio-economic backgrounds in countries the world over, and a well-educated working pop
Learning to be a person – East and West
This paper falls into two parts – a Western interpretation and an Eastern critique of the same process. The first part provides an interpretation of how we learn to become culturally embedded individuals. The paper notes the learning processes in the formation of the cultural and national self. We, in the West, have traditionally assumed that the process and its interpretation is universal because we have assumed the universality of human nature.…
The study of East and West in comparative education – towards a rationale
Questions about East and West have constituted some major debates in the past few years, especially in education but also much more widely, with questions being asked that are quite fundamental to
Exploration, discovery, learning

Adult Learning in the Social Context
An Analysis of Experience in the Processesof Human Learning
This paper illustrates the processes whereby personal experience is constructed from an interaction of the natural, personal and social elements of the life-world network. It shows how experience is both pro-active and re-active and that the sense of self emerges as a result of the on-going interaction of the individual with the elements of the life-world, and it relates human learning to this process

Approaching Freshet beneath Landfast Ice in Kugmallit Bay on the Canadian Arctic Shelf
The Mackenzie River is the largest river in the North American Arctic. Its huge freshwater and sediment load impacts the Canadian Beaufort Shelf, transporting large quantities of sediment and associated organic carbon into the Arctic Ocean. The majority of this sediment transport occurs during the freshet peak flow season (May to June). Mackenzie River-Arctic Ocean coupling has been widely studied during open water seasons, but has rarely been in…

Globalization, Lifelong Learning and the Learning Society
This book critically assesses the learning that is required and provided within a learning society and gives a detailed sociological analysis of the emerging role of lifelong learning with examples from around the globe. Divided into three clear parts the book: looks at the development of the knowledge economy provides a critique of lifelong learning and the learning society focuses on the changing nature of research in the learning society. The …
Beyond the learning society
The argument of this paper is that the learning society, as presented by the dominant discourse, has emphasised scientific rationality and work–life learning to the exclusion of both a comprehensive understanding of lifelong learning and also the breadth of human experience and knowledge. This is because global capitalism has emphasised scientific and technical knowledge and the competitive market; its other driving force has been information tec…

Globalisation, the Learning Society and Comparative Education
Extending the logic of industrialism thesis, it is argued here that the world now has a global infrastructure, information technology empowered by those who control capital. Globalisation has resulted in the development of learning societies as a superstructural phenomenon. Four dimensions of the learning society are analysed in this article and the implications of these are explored for the study of comparative education. The thesis of the artic…

Globalisation, Citizenship and the Education of Adults in Contemporary European Society
It is argued in this paper that globalisation is undermining the state and, therefore, calling for a reconsideration of the concept of citizenship. But education has generally reproduced the dominant culture, which is increasingly becoming influenced by the global economic market. Education is reproducing this culture. Adult education, however, has traditionally stood outside of the institutionalised education sector and has served a more democra…
Introduction
The last Special Number of Comparative Education devoted to the field's 'present state and future prospects' was published in 1977, in what Nigel Grant, the then Editor, noted to be the 13th birthday and 'adolescence' of the journal. Now in its 36th year, and at the turn of the millennium, we devote a second issue to a reflective and forward-looking analysis-recognising the contemporary revitalisation of comparative and international research in …
Continuing Education in a Late-modern or Global Society
Continuing education, those forms of education that occur after initial education, is exposed to the global market forces in a twofold manner which is foreign to traditional education: firstly, it has to relate to the changing structures and demands of the workforce in the global market and, secondly, it is a marketable commodity in itself. This means that there are no simple systems of continuing education that can be compared between nations or…

Global Trends in Lifelong Learning and the Response of the Universities
The argument of this article is that higher education is forced to respond to the dominant social pressures of the day, especially the demands of advanced capitalism. Globalisation has produced an international division of labour with more knowledge-based workers in the West. Higher education in those countries has, consequently, endeavoured to respond to the demands of these workers in innovative ways and these changes point the direction that h…

The validity and reliability of focus groups as a research method in adult education
The article examines the theory and practice of focus groups in adult education research. Three theoretical positions are described: radical hermeneutic, moderate interpretative and pragmatic realistic position trying to bridge the gap with positivist research. This last position has been chosen as the departure point for a further analysis of the focus group elements, which relate to validity and reliability. The research examines four European …

rT nHE horticultural and silvicultural factors that have affected the nature and the distribution of parks, gardens, and forest groves in England have been sadly neglected by scholars.1 Yet the horticultural scene, from domestic gardens to public parks and squares to private estates of the gentry, has always been an important element in the landscape of both town and country. Significant changes that have occurred in the character of gardens and …

Innovation in engineering education
An example of innovation in higher education is described, the Product and Manufacturing System design project (PAMS). An important aspect of this innovation is that the staff who run the project have consciously tried to adopt a leadership style of management, as opposed to a bureaucratic one. PAMS is a major engineering design project undertaken by teams of students. The project is spread over 3 years of various undergraduate engineering progra…
