Paying for Education: Debating the Price of Progress: Foundations and Futures of Education
Autor Peter Daviesen Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 apr 2018
How much education should we pay for?
Can we buy knowledge about how to improve education?
Uniquely presenting a general overview of economic principles applicable to all sectors of education, Paying for Education makes key economic ideas accessible to non-economists, whilst drawing on insights from other social science disciplines. It examines the implications of its analysis, especially for two important areas of policy – paying for teachers and paying for teaching in higher education – in order to highlight some underlying issues and consider alternative policy options, as well as reflect on possible futures.
The chapters examine:
- The value of education for the individual
- The value of education for society
- Private and public demands for education
- Choosing a system to supply education
- The cost, efficiency and equity of providing education

‘Paying for Education is an outstanding contribution to explaining and deciphering the complex economic issues confronting students, their families and societies. [..] The book is fully accessible to the curious reader, but also informative and technically rigorous for the analyst.’

‘Paying for Education by Peter Davies is one of those ‘must-have’ books for students of education. It presents the economic and sociological principles necessary to gain a deeper understanding of the political issues around how and why education should be funded, and by whom. At its core are discussions about the value of education for individuals and for society, and how all this should be systematised to provide effectiveness in outcomes and efficiency in delivery.’
Anthony Kelly, Professor of Education, University of Southampton, UK.
