The Privatization of Education
Author: Antoni Verger
Publisher: Teachers College Press
ISBN: 0807774723
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 393
Book Description
Education privatization is a global phenomenon that has crystallized in countries with very different cultural, political, and economic backgrounds. In this book, the authors examine how privatization policies are being adopted and why so many countries are engaging in this type of education reform. The authors explore the contexts, key personnel, and policy initiatives that explain the worldwide advance of the private sector in education, and identify six different paths toward education privatization—as a drastic state sector reform (e.g., Chile, the U.K.), as an incremental reform (e.g., the U.S.A.), in social-democratic welfare states, as historical public-private partnerships (e.g., Netherlands, Spain), as de facto privatization in low-income countries, and privatization via disaster. Book Features: The first comprehensive, in-depth investigation of the political economy of education privatization at a global scale.An analysis of the different strategies, discourses, and agents that have contributed to advancing (and resisting) education privatization trends. An examination of the role of private corporations, policy entrepreneurs, philanthropic organizations, think-tanks, and teacher unions. “Rich in examples, careful in its analysis, important in its conclusions and recommendations for further work, this book is a vital, rigorous, up-to-date resource for education policy researchers.” —Stephen J. Ball, University College London “Few issues are as significant as is education privatization across the globe; few treatments of this issue offer both the breadth and nuanced understanding that this book does.” —Christopher Lubienski, Indiana University

La ley de las aulas

Publisher: Editorial UOC
ISBN: 8491164839
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 119
Book Description
Una de las ideas más extendidas en la España actual es que la Educación Primaria y Secundaria no está a la altura de lo que se espera de un país moderno y desarrollado, un mantra que se repite cada vez que se publica un nuevo informe PISA. Este reportaje intenta trazar una breve historia de los cambios que cada ley ha introducido en los últimos 45 años de enseñanza, desde que la Ley General de Educación modernizase el sistema de escuelas e institutos públicos hasta la reciente implantación de la LOMCE, dando voz a aquellos que paradójicamente suelen ser excluidos del debate educativo, sus profesores. Estos explican las dificultades y alegrías de su trabajo diario y la evolución que se ha producido durante las últimas décadas, y dejan la puerta abierta a innovaciones metodológicas que anuncian, en el corto plazo, un nuevo panorama educativo.

The autonomy of schools receives much attention not the least because of the changes which affect school governance, the participation of parents and the role of the school principal. The author concludes that, despite democratisation, there remains the need to further this process in relation to the internal functioning of schools and especially in relation to the actual participation of parents and pupils.
