Abstract	This monograph is intended to foster an understanding of the history, context, and current status of adult education in Greece. The first part, which is devoted to the history of lifelong learning and adult education in Greece, consists of two chapters. The first chapter examines ancient and medieval Greece, and the second one covers the history of adult education from 1821 until the present. The second part of the book covers adult education in Greece today. The following topics are covered in the six chapters included in Part 2: the present economic, social, and political framework of adult education in Greece (the economic, social, and government background; the party platform and government program; 5-year economic and social development plans; the 1983-1987 plan for modernization, decentralization, and participation; and targeted development pertinent to adult education); adult education agents and related social structures (leadership and operating systems; formal, nonformal, and informal education; providers of adult education; and the role of the peace movement and peace education); learners in adult education, client systems, targeted groups, and self-help programs; adult education as a field of study; international contacts; and future prospects and potential. References, footnotes, a transliteration table, a list of acronyms, and an index complete the monograph. (MN)
