The Politics of Privatization in American Education

William L. Boyd

Penn State University

The long-sustained effort of conservatives and their think tanks and media outlets to win support for school choice, market forces, and privatization schemes in education is paying off. But it is encountering steady resistance from the public education establishment and its supporting teachers’ unions. Actions, reactions, strategies, and the unfolding political struggle between these adversaries are the subjects of this brief overview of this topic.

Key Words: school choice • privatization • education policy
