The Business of Education-a comprehensive view of how education
policy is made in the US and, in some cases, globally-analyzes and
critiques the influence of educational policy networks in a wide
range of contexts and from a variety of perspectives, including
testing, college preparation, juvenile detention centers, special
education, the arts, teacher evaluation systems, education of
undocumented immigrants, college faculty preparation, and financial
aid. A network chart in most chapters illustrates how the major
political actors, mainly private philanthropic foundations,
for-profit companies, government officials, and politicians
involved in the network, are linked. Joel Spring, internationally
renowned scholar and analyst of educational policy, situates and
frames the network studies in an introduction discussing general
theories of education policy networks.
