<p>Review\n"Martin's The Right to Higher Education is sure to become a touchstone text in higher education research. Though many theorists and advocates increasingly support thinking of higher education as a right, few offer arguments for this claim. Martin's careful, tightly argued book does just that. But perhaps the most significant contribution this book makes is shifting the debate in higher education away from inequality and economic mobility. Instead, Martin asks us to consider what role higher education should play in our lives." -- Jennifer Morton, University of Pennsylvania\n"In this remarkable book, Christopher Martin argues that there is a robust, universal right to higher education and that vindicating this right requires reimagining the role of higher education in our lives. Drawing expertly on the tradition of perfectionist liberalism, Martin makes the case that the state has the authority-and the duty-to arrange higher educational institutions in a way that guarantees, to each citizen, the opportunity to live autonomously over the full course of a life. Few readers will come away unmoved by this inspiring vision of the place of higher education in a free society." -- David O'Brien, Tulane University\n"Christopher Martin's book provides an original and comprehensive justification of higher education, which shapes a compelling vision of what universities and colleges should be doing. A major contribution to the philosophy of education, that should be read not just by philosophers, but by higher education teachers and leaders." -- Harry Brighouse, University of Wisconsin-Madison\nMany assume that a person's right to education terminates with high school, and that higher education is a luxury addition. The conversation about education changes in palpable ways once we focus on higher education rather than the education we ordinarily think that citizens are due when they are children and teenagers. We see more talk about competition for university places, standardized testing, and elite admissions. We parse out the differences between the benefits of education for the individual and the burdens of public financial support for such an education. The move from educational provision for children to educational provision for adults marks a troubling transformation in this public conversation: from one about how it can improve the lives of all individuals, to one preoccupied with fairness, competition, merit, personal responsibility, and the sharing of benefits and burdens. Problems of status, stratification, and selectivity capture as much, if not more, of our<br />
attention than the question of what higher education institutions should aim to achieve. But why should it be so different, when it is no less essential? Obtaining a higher education degree can change the course of a person's life, providing them with vast opportunities that they could not access otherwise--in fact for many it is a prerequisite for fulfilling their personal and professional goals, or even being able to just make a living. Yet it is almost always framed as privilege, not a right--and a privilege many spend years or even decades paying for after their studies have ended. Our higher education systems are built on the presumption that this is all as it should be: that pursuing higher education is a choice some people make, but not something to which all of us are entitled.\nChristopher Martin turns this view on its head by arguing that higher education is in fact an unconditional, absolute right of all citizens in a free and open society. As he argues, a closer look at the value of education in a free and open society reveals that many of the challenges we see in higher education today can be attributed to the failure to recognize higher education as an individual right. Using concepts and ideas from liberal political philosophy, Martin shows that access to educational goods play a key role in helping citizens realize their self-det</p>
