Milton Friedman Speaks: Lecture 11, \"Putting Learning Back in the Classroom\" and Q & A - DVD
The quality of public education in America today in many places is deplorable. Dr. Friedman identifies (1) the increasing centralization and bureaucratization of the educational establishment, which inhibits educators from seeing and responding to the needs of their “consumers” — parents and students; (2) our altered view of the relationship between the individual and society— the shift from seeing the individual as responsible for oneself to seeing the individual as someone controlled by social forces. An obvious solution is to give power back to the parents. The voucher system is an especially effective means of exercising that power; it can foster competition among public and private institutions and incite them to offer us a better quality educational “product.” Original recorded in 1978. Due to deterioration of original tape some video is lost or poor quality. ©1978 Lecture 47 min/Q&A 28 min.
