Abstract

Few issues in educational policy elicit as strong opinions as those raised by school choice. Educators, policy-makers and parents’ views on the public funding of private education range widely from virulent support to concrete opposition, with each side usually seeking research to reaffirm their already established convictions. The resulting debates are usually unproductive and yield little in the way of new or creative insights on school choice. Thankfully, none of this tepid pseudo-dialogue is found in Educating Citizens: International Perspectives on Civic Values and School Choice, edited by American political scientists Patrick J. Wolf and Stephen Macedo.
