1970 年代以降のイギリス文化政策の 改革をめぐる諸論－成人教育との関連を中心に－

Abstract

This Paper aims to clarify the discussions on reformation of cultural policy in Britain since 1970s, focusing on the relationship with adult education. In Japan, if we try to discuss on cultural policy or administration, the logic of education tends to be criticized in terms of the restructuring of the board of education. However, as we pay attention to the context in Britain, this topic seems to be a little more complicated, which is discussed in chapter Ⅰ . A traditional cultural policy and adult education (Chapter Ⅱ) changed in 1970s, from conveying estimated values of culture to finding new ones. Triggered by new Secretary-General Roy Shaw, adult education specialist, department of education was founded in The Arts Council of Great Britain. ACGB encouraged arts of community and minorities(Chapter Ⅲ). Adult education specialists as Roy Shaw, Raymond Williams, Richard Hoggart etc. also boosted these movements. As they are known as specialists of cultural studies, their arguments was built through the discussion in the field of adult education. David Jones was also one of them. He saw adult education as each one’s definition activity of culture(Chapter Ⅳ). These movements and discussions in Britain since 1970s have certain meanings in studies in education and cultural policy in Japan.
