Abstract

Examines how five trends--socioeducational demands, local political empowerment, technological options, economic trends, and nonlinear planning--weaken the school's authoritative status and strengthen school choice. Finds planning for choice an attribute of future educational policymaking and planning. Presents a conceptual framework for addressing these trends and the dynamic tensions produced by combining choice with planning. (53 references) (MLH)
