Education as an Ethical Concern in the Global Era

This paper was originally presented at the 2014 conference of the Midwest Comparative and International Education Society. We are grateful to the conference organizers and audience for their helpful and thoughtful suggestions.

This article examines the issue of the ethical status of education, particularly as related to individual dignity and freedom. We select cases that have been described in fine detail by social science—the education of girls and the education of all children within counter-hegemonic movements. These cases involve issues of access to equitable and high quality education.
