Williams, Gareth – London Review of Education, 2016
Authors who claim that higher education is a public service are often concerned about equity: they are making a normative case that like all education it should be available for everybody.

Using the notion of civic capacity as a theoretical framework, the essay looks at this reform from the perspectives of its government proponents, critics outside of…
