Title

Human Capital As The Summum Bonum Of Public Education: Past And Present

Abstract

Corporations have used and continue to use schools as conduits to establish consumption as the ultimate expression of participatory democracy and, thus, as the supreme good and standard of personal growth. By nurturing this narrow moral ideal as the summum bonum (the highest good) of public and private life, our corporate-infused schools work to defuse critical analysis of all forms of social injustice and render our children vulnerable to corporate interests. © 2007 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
