Deschooling L'earning explores how recent reforms to young adults' senior secondary schooling have given rise to capital friendly learning-and-earning (l'earning) webs, reporting how leaders committed to deschooling have mobilised capability brokers to create l'earning networks. Using Illich's ideas to explain disenchantment with classroom-centric schooling, and Neo-Weberian conceptions of the new spirit of capitalism to deepen understanding of reforms, Singh and Harreveld's analysis suggests that deschooling l'earning builds young adults' commitment to twenty-first century modes of capital accumulation. Deschooling also gives insights into how they might secure their future, and reassures them that this can serve the common good. These conceptual resources provide tools for corrective and transformative critiques that test government policies and practices for their adverse effects.
