LEON, Crisanto G. Political, ethical and social justice in neoliberal higher education. La Revista Venezolana de Educación (Educere) [online]. 2005, vol.9, n.29, pp.189-197. ISSN 1316-4910.

Political, ethical and social justice are concepts that must always be related to university education. When they are stripped of their essence and adapted to group interests, they tend to become doctrinaire elements of domination. Neoliberalism, as one of these tendencies, has the goal of creating patterns of conduct, to the extent of penetrating universities in the attempt to adjust the student body to a behavioral pattern in accord with the needs of the market.
