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 USA, 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.
