In this provocative book, University of North London (UK) sociology lecturer Dennis O'Keeffe argues that the institutionalization of “political correctness” in American and British schools causes inefficiency and a lack of educational quality. Because political correctness in schools is the end product of a system overwhelmingly dependent on public finance, especially at the primary and secondary levels, quality learning often becomes difficult or impossible.
