Description

Politicians and school officials often claim that higher education is the primary answer to social and economic challenges. Educating Inequality challenges these common narratives by looking closely at the real relationship between degree attainment and the job market. This book explores the myths that shape public perception of how university education impacts social mobility. Instead of viewing education in isolation, this work examines the need for public policies that revamp the financial aid system and work to increase the availability of good jobs. It addresses fundamental questions regarding the fairness of our current social system and the impact of individual competition within an unequal society. By examining the connection between democracy and capitalism in higher education, this text provides a deep look at the structural issues facing students and workers today. It is an essential read for anyone interested in how policy and education intersect to influence economic outcomes.
