Education: "global market"

Of tuition $ 200 billion, or 20 / 1 of the gross domestic product the world (4) and "education" for Glenn R.. Jones, president, general manager of Jones International Ltd. "is a market with the rhythm of the very rapid growth and is expected to know the configuration private industry and adult education double-digit growth rate during the next decade all "(5), which raises encouraged many people. There is the sacrifice of public education to the competitor who must put appropriate. "It is now being profound reform of the education of the public, a reform-oriented market and on its way" (6), according to UNESCO, "the rules framed for the opening of a school in many countries have been simplified and facilitated, and convert the management of public institutions to private companies. The next step in transforming the school into a business sense of the word "(7). Some governments are fully approved; the United States federal government is intent on reforming education systems in close cooperation with the National Alliance of Business National Alliance of Business, a lobby is very strong (8).

Having concluded the parliamentary reforms Bzalandh to develop the new "program written for the education of the most daring, and that is not the work of it before in any country of the rich countries" (9). The field of management of public schools has become the whole of Great Britain for some time in the hands of private companies as Procter & Gamble Company or shawl World.

And suggests a growing number of public universities in the face of progressive reduction of government spending types of configuration performed by the Kooxford England (10) and McGill in Canada. . . Some universities have shifted completely to the contracting university Honah Bostralaa.

As for Europe, the reforms required for the privatization of public education systems are incorporated and adopted gradually, but the topic is very sensitive, which imposes a move with caution. The European Commission decided to take the matter upon itself under the pressure of the round table of European industrialists (ERT) , and in this context, the configuration and communication technologies provide a new justification ideal. Under the European Commissioner Viviane stick of Reading and the Ministers of Education decided that "Ataboa to engage the total in the new economy" (11). Expected before the end of 2001 that are linked to the total European schools to the Internet, at a time in which you reduce the number of teachers, their pay, the parts of the growing of the national budget for education is allocated for the deployment of informatics school (12), which pleased many dealers software and educational products and manufacturers of computers as IBM and Hewlett-Packard, HP, and as a microprocessor makers Intel and Microsoft to enact. . . Not to overlook the giants in the field of communication. And responds to the transfer of public finances towards private contracting in the first place to the wishes of the Round Table of Industrialists Europeans (ERT ), and the second objective is to be available to the economy of twenty-first century workforce mobile, flexible and adaptable and able to exercise training for life in leisure time and at its own expense , in short, a modern labor (13).

And to discuss priorities, meet industrialists Europeans (ERT) President of the European Union every six months and the pressure group this course headed since 1999, Morris Tapaksblatt, president of the company Anglo-Dutch Reed Elsovyi announcing its intention to become a world leader for education and dissemination on the Internet.

Industry has created men Europeans to follow the progress of the negotiations of the World Trade Organization team is interested foreign economic relations, not only the boss, Peter Sutherland, chairman of BP Amoco, former Director General of languages ​​between 1993 and 1995. To ensure this lobby to pass instructions to the government, it does not stop from making the following warning: "The industry is ultimately must bear full and total responsibility for education and training (...) Education must be seen as a service that is returned to the world economy (...)" .

It will certainly not be canceled entirely public education systems; only logic applied in liberal economics: the privatization of profits and socialization of fire loss, it will remain there a particular role on the States to play. Thus, the OCDE see that "not only on public authorities to secure access to education for those who will never form a lucrative market and who will escalate excluded from society in general as much as others continue to progress" (14). This course and the wave of privatization will not, of course, of interest to Western countries alone.
