Examines how teachers and learners are under relentless pressure to conform their professional identity to a model imposed by policymakers. The book deals with the fundamental question facing teachers and learners worldwide: who are we, what are we supposed to be doing, and why? It will appeal to staff and students involved in training for compulsory and post-compulsory/vocational education and lifelong learning, and to anyone in higher education interested in issues of policy and identity formation.
