KLEES, STEVEN J.  and  EDWARDS JR., D. BRENT. PRIVATIZATION OF EDUCATION: EXPERIENCES FROM THE UNITED STATES AND ELSEWHERE. Rev. Bras. Educ. [online]. 2015, vol.20, n.60, pp.11-30. ISSN 1413-2478.  https://doi.org/10.1590/S1413-24782015206002.

The objective of the paper is to analyze the mechanisms of privatization of education adopted in the United States, under a neoliberal framework, the results of this adoption, and, more broadly, the global role of the introduction of privatization policies by the World Bank. In order to elaborate this argument, in some cases, an analysis of privatization policies adopted in other countries is undertaken.

Keywords : neoliberalism; privatization; education; United States; World Bank.
