AUTHOR
SUMMARY
These three essays on social science terminology examine commonly used words whose meanings, on closer examination, are not clear. The first essay analyzes the term socialization as it is used inconsistently by 24 authors in psychology, sociology, and education. Brezinka contends that it is frequently confused with the term education, to the detriment of both concepts. The second essay, Models in Educational Theories, examines 15 usages of the term models, including the vogue expression paradigm, and finds little of use for the science of education in the concepts. The third essay, Conflict Education, attacks the New Left and its pedagogical theories for failing to abide by basic principles of concept construction and use. Throughout the book, the author shows how imprecision can be identified and corrected.Brezinka, Wolfgang is the author of 'Socialization and Education Essays in Conceptual Criticism' with ISBN 9780313292583 and ISBN 0313292582.
