Abstract
The argument is developed that combining cultural and political theoretical perspectives has great potential for deepening our understanding of interaction in educational administration. Application of the integrated cultural and political perspective is demonstrated through a case study of districtwide restructuring of schools in England to adjust to the declining numbers of students attending local schools.Keywords
