Abstract

This study interrogates Abbeville v. the State of South Carolina using a policy-regimes framework to understand the relationship between the South Carolina Judicial System, General Assembly, and Educational stakeholders. We seek to understand how the political interests of the General Assembly and wealthy districts may have subverted a coalition of districts seeking remedy for historical school funding inequities. Through in-depth interviews, we highlight the perspective of Educational stakeholder leaders within this coalition. We conclude with a discussion of the need for wealthy districts to act in solidarity with the coalition of plaintiff districts against the status quo of austerity in the state.
