Un ensayo que analiza el modo en que el exceso de legislación y el aumento de la burocracia han degradado el papel de los docentes y la calidad de la enseñanza secundaria en España. ¿Han servido ocho leyes generales de Educación para conseguir un sistema inclusivo y de calidad? ¿O, por el contrario, LOGSE, LOE, LOMCE o la reciente LOMLOE han contribuido a consolidar un modelo político populista y neoliberal en nuestro país? ¿Cómo afecta a la calidad educativa la ideología del cambio disruptivo continuo, que practican tanto gabinetes de izquierda como de derecha?
