“Many who are self-taught far excel the doctors, masters, and bachelors of the most renowned universities. All rational action is in the first place individual action.”- Ludvig Von Mises

Education is as important as breathing air. This article will delve into a libertarian’s perspective of education.

 Education is a fundamental right, and with the inculcation of Libertarian beliefs, it can be carried out in society in the right manner.

Libertarian Education

Libertarians believe that the education system must be grounded in free decisions about what to teach and learn, when and how to pursue education, and when to protect and preserve diverse people, ideas, and ways of life. If a libertarian education system is to be followed, the future will have a scope for a lot of high quality education in a variety of styles that will be meeting the parent’s needs.  

Libertarians actively believe that Government interference must be restricted in order to let the education system be a free domain where there will be no discrimination and biases.

Discrimination and biases lead to uneven distribution of education, creating a society where favoritism looms large. Hence, libertarian education needs to be free from discriminative biases when it comes to imparting education. Liberals believe that imparting education will be just and fair without any room for discrimination and biases of any kind. Freedom to choose what to teach and how to teach will lead to the fundamental rock of a liberal mindset in society. If a libertarian education policy were put to work, it would empower individuals who will be given education not based on any kind of discrimination, whether caste, creed, gender, or religion.

Conclusion

Liberal education system will be transformative in imparting quality education. Also, making the world a much better place where there will no restrictions on learning and growing. Liberal perspective will give a new dimension to education system.
