More on the structure of british education and the role of geography

Geography in higher education is severely constrained by its bureau-cratic organisation. There is a need for new directions in social science at this level, for the current courses do not meet the require ments of a mass education system in which an academic training is not required for the majority of students. Such new directions should involve the integration of the social sciences in a structural framework, so that the subject matter of the disciplinary parts is comprehended within the context of the societal whole.
