Résumé

This essay considers the socio-economic context of the 1972 report of Alberta's Commission on Educational Planning. The Commission's exogenous view of the role of education in society, conceptual difficulties of the "Alternative Futures" approach, inadequate consideration of economic factors, and the quandry of evolutionary versus revolutionary approaches to planning are discussed. The essay concludes that the Report does not meet the minimum requirements of a good educational plan.
