Abstract

The right to education is a fundamental human right. However, human rights in the context of the West are not innate and natural. Even in the subsequent revolutions and movements, education was not an appeal with the attribute of "should". Moreover, in the legislation of modern Western countries, the right to education rarely appears in the written law. The reason why the right to education can become a human right is more from people's demand for social justice and the influence of Marxism.
