‘Life Chances, Education and Social Movements’ dwells on the necessity of education and social movements for enhancing the life chances of individuals and disadvantaged groups respectively. Ralf Dahrendorf’s work on life chances and social conflict is used to support the theoretical and empirical arguments in the book.

''Life Chances, Education and Social Movements'' explains the sociology of life chances; the opportunities and experiences of different generations in Australia, the United States and the UK; and how the differential distribution of life-enhancing opportunities affects our well-being. Ralf Dahrendorf?s life-chances theory is used to support the theoretical and empirical arguments in Lyle Munro?s book. For Dahrendorf, education is arguably the most important option individuals can utilise for improving their well-being and for overcoming social and economic disadvantages. While there are countless sociological accounts of inequality, Munro?s study takes a different and novel approach based on Dahrendorf?s model, according to which education and social movements and their networks function to enhance the life chances of individuals and social groups respectively.
