American Military-Education Convergence: Designing the Failure of Public Education

Abstract

The prospect of converging American military and public educational doctrine indicates a breach of states’ rights and dual governance in America. Research indicates that a new lexicon, language, and glossary of hybridized military and educational terminology now seriously compromises state rights to determine educational doctrine on the one hand and federal government determination of security doctrine on the other hand. The result is the insinuation into educational spheres of prerogatives founded on fear, profit, and control. The primary purpose of public education, to sustain democracy, is being threatened by corporate agendas and private investors tied to the military industrial complex.
