摘要:
In Schools with Heart, Daniel Brown explores voluntarism by using original data gathered from 185 interviews with public school principals, teachers, and volunteers, many of whom worked in schools known for their volunteer programs. Supplementing these data from other studies, this careful inquiry finds that volunteers offer much to schools. But who are school volunteers? Why do they offer their time? And how and why do schools accommodate them? The book addresses these questions by showing that school voluntarism is seen as a special bridge between primordial institutions (such as families) and modern institutions (such as public schools).
By using various perspectives and relying primarily on rational choice theory, the author shows that the use of benevolence in schools offers a vision of how education may be changed. He presents some recommendations for policies that would alter the balance between public and private support to education.
