Private Might Be Public? Vouchers – the Most Radical Form of Privatization in American Education
Abstract
Privatization is the main theme of educational politics in XXI century. The
idea of vouchers is connected with the believe, that if parents can use publicly
funded vouchers to cover tuition at the school of their choice, schools
will be forced to compete for paying customers and hence will have reason
to improve. But those who believe that education is a part of the implicit social
contract required for an e ective democracy place emphasis on a school
system that is free, publicly funded and guided by democratic decisions
rather than that the market ones. Against vouchers was even Chief Justice
Earl Warren, who have said that the opportunity of an education is a right
which must be made available to all on equal terms.
