Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book discusses the obligation of a state to provide for its citizensâ education. The author opens by describing the devastation that war-torn New York endured during and after the Revolution. Despite its struggles, the state legislature recognized education as a remedy for the wid…espread ignorance the war inflicted upon its young people. The author goes on to argue that the state has a responsibility to provide for complete education for all citizens. He states this is is not because education is simply a good thing, but because it is vital for the health and security of a nation. The author provides compelling arguments against the idea that primary education is enough, and delves into the reasons why even higher education should be free and open to all. He concludes by explaining that education of any kind prepares the individual to receive more for themselves. The author's assertion that education is a public good is as relevant today as it was in the 18th century, and his ideas continue to inform and inspire education policies in nations around the globe.
