Through a multi-country study, "Comparative Perspectives on
International School Leadership "examines the current global spread
of educational leadership, occurring rapidly and widely. Exploring
five international case studies of leadership policy, preparation,
and practice under the framework of policy borrowing and
adaptation, Magno attempts to understand and account for
commonalities and differences across country contexts. Rather than
assuming a particular model or theory to leadership is best,
"Comparative Perspectives on International School Leadership" takes
a policy-oriented perspective and considers how and why certain
approaches are being formulated and accepted, including an
examination of motivations, influencers, actors, institutions, and
implementation processes. Magno ultimately argues that efforts
toward formalizing educational leadership reflect current global
political objectives to improve schools by increasing
accountability, transparency, and professionalism. This engaging
book will be of interest to scholars and students in the fields of
educational leadership and comparative education.
