Description

Hidden Markets: Public Policy and the Push to Privatize Education offers a deep look into the changing landscape of the American school system. As federal policies like the No Child Left Behind Act, Race to the Top, and the Elementary and Secondary Education Act shape national standards, a new economic reality has emerged. This book tracks how test publishers, software companies, and research firms utilize these policies to expand their influence within public schools. The education industry now plays a major role in the daily governance and administration of public institutions. This shift represents a significant trend in how education is managed and funded across the United States. By using specific analytic tools, the text examines how these private entities have integrated themselves into the public sector, creating a ubiquitous presence in modern schooling. Part of the Critical Social Thought series from Routledge, this work is essential for those studying the intersection of business, finance, and public policy. It provides a clear view of the hidden trends driving the privatization of education and the economic forces currently shaping the future of public learning.
