Abstract

Based on previous essays on schools and the education system and administration, the
author argues that some main ideas can be identified in the period after April 25th, 1974: tensions between centre(s) and periphery(ies) as far as educational and administration decisions are concerned; distinct concepts of autonomy; different realisations and perspectives about democracy and autonomy in schools. The author also argues for the need for an analytical representation of a polycentric type regarding the loci and processes of decision making in the school governments.
