McLaren emphasized to respect the diversity. But he noticed that there is no need to recognize all kinds of differences. The most important thing is to smooth away the social class differences, and then other differences will be recognized. He stressed the importance of the classes, and tried to use Marxism to resist capitalism. Furthermore, capitalism trends to the globalization, and education is affected and gradually becomes so commercialized.
