This collection focuses on education policy in the context of
globalisation and draws together influential research dealing with
the interplay between education policy and globalisation.
Globalisation and neo-liberalism in relation to education policy
are addressed, as is the impact of the global financial crisis, the
recent rise of ethno-nationalism and progressive challenges to
neo-liberal hegemony. A number of chapters deal with the new
spatialities instantiated by globalisation's new technology, and
consider the implications for education policy. Also discussed are
global policy actors (such as the OECD, EU and edu-businesses) in
education policy; the significance of international large scale
assessments to an emergent global policy field; refugees and
education; English language policy and globalisation; off-shore
schools; and the importance of affect in policy in the context of
globalisation. The collection closes with two methodological
contributions that consider the implications of globalisation in
today's critical education policy analysis. The collection is
brought together in a substantial introduction that traverses the
literature and research on globalisation and education policy and
also situates the chapters and approaches in the collection within
the field. The chapters in this book were originally published as
articles in various Taylor and Francis journals.
