An analysis of how state-level education governance in the United States distributes accountability across multiple agencies — often leading to fragmented responsibility ("splintered accountability") that complicates reform and undermines coherent policy. Shober examines structural and political barriers in standardization, school improvement, and accountability systems, arguing for institutional redesign to achieve effective school performance and reform.
