This brief volume provides a critical defense of the U.S. Supreme Court's view expressed in its San Antonio Independent School District v. Rodriguez ruling that education is not a fundamental right deserving protection under the fourteenth amendment. Carcieri (political science, University of Tennessee, Knoxville) considers the theoretical and historical relationship between education and democracy, examining the role of the Sophists in classical Athens and the view of education present in the writings of Jefferson and Madison.
