In the recent past education has been transformed from a virtual good of value to a consumer good, which is seen under a pure economical aspect. The value is not measured in what it brings to the individual being, it is merely seen as to what it can contribute to the current economic situation of a country. Managerial categories are applied onto all kinds of education and sciences, no matter what the real differences and scientific methods among them are.
