“The affirmative and affirming vision of School Choice and the
Betrayal of Democracy is one that rejects the ‘neutrality’ of
‘the market,’ and the habit of ignoring problems such as economic
coercion, in favor of a world of interconnection. Asen’s elegant
analysis of the (a)morality of neoliberalism is sure to be heavily
cited for years to come.”—Patricia Roberts-Miller, author of
Demagoguery and Democracy
“School Choice and the Betrayal of Democracy deals deftly with the
pressing question of how well democratic practices and public
advocacy hold up against the structures of neoliberalism and its
valorization of market logics. This book uses both theoretical and
empirical evidence to highlight the limitations of market logics
for collective projects and suggests that we recommit ourselves to
the difficult work of local political practice.”—Catherine J.
Chaput, author of Inside the Teaching Machine: Rhetoric and the
Globalization of the U.S. Public Research University
