Description: In this book, Martin Lawn explores aspects of the culture and politics of teaching in the mid-twentieth century to reveal the struggle by teachers and their employers, in and around work, to socially construct the modern teacher. It was the idea of the teacher as much as the practice of teaching that was the object of this struggle.
