Abstract
The author discusses the responses to the Coleman Report of three interest groups from which strong reactions might have been expected—the educational establishment,the reform establishment, and the research establishment. He offers three propositions explaining why these groups responded as they did to the Coleman findings. The author illustrates one of his propositions in some detail by analyzing the Coleman data relating family structure and school achievement.Keywords
