Description
"Policy formation" should be an objective process. However, US education policy is formed by opportunistic "strategic scholars" promoting only their own work. Wealthy foundations, political parties, and celebrity-obsessed journalists sustain this information degradation. The Malfunction of US Education Policy examines how education suffers for it.
