Description

The Business of Education provides a comprehensive view of how education policy is shaped in the United States and globally. This scholarly work analyzes and critiques the influence of educational policy networks across a wide range of critical contexts. By examining various perspectives, the text explores how power and wealth impact systems such as testing, college preparation, and teacher evaluation systems. Readers gain insight into the roles of major political actors, specifically private philanthropic foundations, through detailed analysis. The book covers diverse topics including special education, the arts, juvenile detention centers, and the education of undocumented immigrants. It also examines college faculty preparation and financial aid structures. This volume is part of the Sociocultural, Political, and Historical Studies in Education series, making it a valuable resource for those studying the systemic drivers of educational reform and policy implementation. It offers a deep look at the connections between private interests and public education systems.
