Summary/Abstract: This paper aims to explore the social, economic and political-ideological context of the rise and fall of comprehensive education policies on both sides of post-war Europe. Our interest lies in seeking the reasons behind this phenomenon from the 1980s onwards; for scientific, policy and other critical discourses focusing on class-based selection mechanisms within education have been greatly diminished. We hope that identifying the major divergences and convergences between the history of comprehensive education policies in Hungary and the UK will provide us with a perspective that locates Hungarian State Socialism within a global context and allow us to study the sources and the development of ideologies that were influential as regards class-centred education policies.
