Privatizing Education: Some Reflections on the Development of Direct Subsidy Scheme in Hong Kong.

Autori: Timothy yuen, Assistant Professor, Hong Kong Institute of Education

Abstract

The discussion of market in education is controversial and often value-laden. This paper aims at exploring the attempts made by the government of Hong Kong to develop a vibrant private sector in school education through the Direct Subsidy Scheme. The scheme allows participating schools to draw funds both from tuition fees and government subsidy on the one hand and promises greater freedom in school operation on the other. This paper will discuss how the scheme was first coined and its significant development. Attention will be paid to how the development of the scheme may have affected the landscape of school education in Hong Kong. Focus will be placed on how it may have an impact on equality of education, class, social mobility and the nature of education. It is hoped that this will become a case to help the reflections on the complexities relating to introducing market to education.

Keywords: Hong Kong; market in education; private sector in school education.

Dinicu Golescu, the Valachian traveler

Autor: Professor Raisa Radu, Ph. D.

Abstract

Dinicu Golescu's work can both be considered an artistic reportage and an early form of sociology. Admiring the values of Western culture and civilisation, Dinicu Golescu cannot forget the backwardness of his country: economical, political, social and cultural. Back home, he tries to improve things, founding a school for boys, at Golesti, and writing handbooks of moral philosophy and religion for his students. Dinicu Golescu was also good at political economy. He was really aware of the danger, for a country like his, to import goods without exporting any. As a good citizen and patriot, Golescu expressed his opinions about improving things and solving current problems of the country.

Keywords: Dinicu Golescu; political economy
