Nowhere is the link between the right's national political agenda and the privatization of public education clearer than in Massachusetts.  In November 1995, just weeks before announcing that he would run for the U.S. Senate against the liberal Democratic incumbent John Kerry, Governor William Weld unveiled a truly radical plan for reshaping K-12 education that could make Massachusetts the testing ground for every weapon in the privatization arsenal.

Charter School Law

This article draws on research focusing on implementation of local charter school policy in the United States. Since Colorado passed charter school law in 1993, charter school policy has spread very fast and many charter schools have been operating across Colorado. However, there is the variation in the implementation of each school district's state charter school policy. Some school districts implement the state's charter school law very actively through providing their students with charter school services while other school districts do not. The primary research question of the study is to examine why the uneven implementation of charter school policy emerges among Colorado's school districts. The statistical results reveal that the policy network factor is the most persuasive evidence in answering the research question.
