Description: Privatisation and Commercialisation in Public Education asks how publicness is being redefined through the restructuring of nominally public school systems. Over the past few decades governments have engineered a wave of reforms in their public systems opening them to privatisation and commercialisation. In public education systems competition choice and autonomy have become entrenched vectors of these reforms. This edited collection carefully examines the difference between privatisation and commercialisation and traces the varying effects privatised and commercialised policy reforms have had in different educational contexts. Many countries have approached the thorny issues of school choice and school autonomy in different ways and this book investigates the impact of these agendas across the US a UK Australia New Zealand parts of Europe sub - Saharan Africa and India. This book brings together contemporary international perspectives from high - profile policy academics on both privatisation and commercialisation in public education systems under the provocation of how the public nature of schooling is changing. This is essential reading for those interested in the idea that current education policy reforms are reshaping what might be considered core educational practices in public schooling.
