This book fills a gap in the literature by focusing on
globalization with regard to the rescaling of educational
accountabilities, linked to international and national testing
regimes and their impact. In particular, this book examines the
impact and effects of this global framework in two illustrative
nations: Australia and Canada. The focus on these two nations,
which have very different forms of federalism, allows for
consideration of the rescaling of politics and policies in the
context of globalization and for an analysis of the complex
rescaling of educational accountabilities. It is the first book to
document and analyse the multi-scalar, relational and
differentiated effects in national schooling systems of this
rescaling of educational accountability. The authors also consider
the ways in which these accountability regimes have rearticulated
social justice and equity policies within nations in reductive
ways. It offers scholars and policy makers both a methodology and
an epistemological framework grounded in critical policy sociology
for doing education policy analysis in a time of neo-liberal
globalization.
