First Published in 1998. This is the final volume of 28 the international library of sociology looking at the sociology of education and is concerned with the topic of who shall be educated and the challenge of unequal opportunities in the United States. If the American faith in the public school as a democratic force is to become less fictional, we must examine the relevant facts and determine what distorts this picture. From such information we can gather the necessary knowledge to act intelligently on the problem of who should be educated. This book is about the school's place in our status system, how it must be improved for democratic living, and what it needs to conform more nearly to American ideals.
