Hargreaves (1996, p. 7) later declared that education research was ‘second-rate’ and decried its inability to “make a serious contribution to fundamental theory or knowledge,” charging instead that it cluttered up obscure academic journals, was irrelevant to practice and was uncoordinated with antecedent research.	cache/epaa-1905.pdf	txt/epaa-1905.txt
