Sinopsis

Lifelong learning is a key government strategy - both in the UK and internationally - to promote economic growth and combat social exclusion. This book presents a highly innovative study of participation in lifelong learning and the problems which need to be overcome if lifelong learning policies are to be successful. It:

provides a systematic analysis, based on innovative empirical research, of the social and economic realities which actually determine patterns of participation in lifelong learning;

shows what the factors are that shape people's participation, or their decision not to participate;

offers new insights into the processes of lifelong learning, which have important implications for the development of more effective policies.
