Description

This book explains how education is becoming more privatized around the world to fit local economic and political needs. Privatization in and of Public Education categorizes different types of privatization as traditional or non-traditional. Traditional policies give more rights to private companies to provide education, while non-traditional policies make public schools more like businesses. The authors show that privatization can lead to more efficient schooling, but it can also create a trade-off between efficiency and equity or inclusion. The book presents a range of perspectives on the impact of privatization, including structural, ethical, and subjective effects. The book also covers a range of countries and regions, including both developed and developing countries. This helps readers understand how privatization is playing out in different contexts around the world.
