This article attempts to start an in-depth consideration and analysis of modern neoliberal education policy through its philosophical roots. To achieve this, the article considers the ideology and philosophy of the classical liberal philosopher John Stuart Mill and the relationship of his philosophy with the modern-day neoliberalist education policy. The purpose of the article is to discuss the philosophical groundwork that drives Mill’s ideas on the establishment of education and compares it to the philosophical groundwork and implications present in modern neoliberal education policy, and through this begin to assert what neoliberalist education policy is. The paper asserts that while Mill’s version of classical liberalism holds similar views and forms of occurrence with modern neoliberalist policies, in many cases Mill’s philosophical groundwork seems to disagree fundamentally with that of neoliberalism. The study is based on literature detailing both the philosophical as well as polity aspects of both Mill’s ideas and modern neoliberalism from the viewpoint of education, and it presents considerations for the nature of neoliberal education policy and its future analysis.

本文试图从其哲学根源开始对现代新自由主义教育政策进行深入思考和分析。为此，本文考虑了古典自由主义哲学家约翰·斯图尔特·密尔的意识形态和哲学，以及他的哲学与现代新自由主义教育政策的关系。本文的目的是讨论驱动密尔关于教育建立思想的哲学基础，并将其与现代新自由主义教育政策中存在的哲学基础和含义进行比较，并由此开始断言新自由主义教育政策是什么。该论文断言，虽然密尔的古典自由主义版本与现代新自由主义政策持有相似的观点和发生形式，在许多情况下，密尔的哲学基础似乎与新自由主义的哲学基础根本不同。该研究基于从教育的角度详述密尔思想和现代新自由主义的哲学和政治方面的文献，并提出了对新自由主义教育政策性质及其未来分析的考虑。
