چکیده
The following investigation of post secondary education will proceed via three subdisciplines of modem economic analysis: first, by way of well-known techniques used in the study of public finance (welfare economics); second through models connected with the economic theory of organization; and third through the approach of ʺpublic choiceʺ (the economics of politics). There are important areas of actual or potential conflict arising from these different approaches, and these will be illustrated. The first part will begin with the traditional public finance approach, the second will apply the theory of economic organization, and the third part will deal with public choice. The final section will offer the chapterʹs main conclusions.
