Economics of Education Approach • Individuals and households demand schooling • State and private sector supply schooling • Education deficit due to low demand • Education deficit due to low/poor quality supply • Human “capital” accrual as motivation for education demand supply
Political Economy Approaches • People optimize on political alternatives and not just economic ones • Many different levels of collectivities (class, ethnicity, unions, factions) are important not just individuals and families • Outcomes are shaped by conflict and contestation and not just by harmonious efficiency-improving interaction
Political Economy of Education • Low priority view: state prioritises other goals • System failure view: collusion, corruption in system keeps people uneducated • Class-based view: elites actively holding people down • Culture-based views: imposition of particular languages, cultural patterns
