Leveling the Playing Field
Brighouse, Harry
Theory and Research in Education, v4 n2 p175-184 2006
This article comments on Fullinwider and Lichtenberg's "Leveling the Playing Field". It reviews their central claims and comments on both their arguments and their reform proposals, and suggests alternative, bolder, egalitarian proposals which involve a higher degree of effective privatization than theirs. (Contains 1 note.)
