商品描述

The Political Economy of Education provides academically rigorous yet clear explanations of the economics and politics driving today's educational systems and how economists analyze them. The book covers a host of topics central to teaching about education and crucial to educational policy. These include how to use the tools of economic and political theory to take critical measure of education's role in social mobility and economic growth, whether good teachers can overcome social class and race achievement gaps, the effectiveness of early childhood and vocational education, and debates on school accountability and whether increasing spending on schooling improves quality. The book also explores worldwide changes in higher education, especially massification and increased stratification and privatization. Written for upper undergraduate and graduate students in economics, public policy, and education and packed with real-world examples, this is an essential text for anyone interested in gaining fresh and international perspectives on education.

《教育的政治經濟學》提供了學術嚴謹但清晰易懂的解釋,闡述了當今教育體系背後的經濟和政治因素,以及經濟學家如何分析這些因素。本書涵蓋了許多與教育教學和教育政策密切相關的主題。其中包括如何運用經濟學和政治理論的工具,對教育在社會流動和經濟增長中的作用進行批判性評估,優秀教師是否能彌補社會階級和種族成就差距,幼兒教育和職業教育的效果,以及學校責任制度的辯論和增加教育支出是否能提高教育質量等。本書還探討了全球高等教育的變化,特別是大規模普及、增加的分層和私有化。本書針對經濟學、公共政策和教育的大學本科和研究生學生,並融入了實際案例,是任何對獲得新鮮和國際化教育觀點感興趣的人的必讀之作。
