This book brings together fifteen comprehensive studies of
significant North American scholars of comparative education from
the 20th century. Providing relevant biographical detail, chapters
analyse each scholar's approach to comparative education and their
on-going influences on the field. Comparative studies in education
have long benefited from the work of significant individuals who
have collectively advanced the field, making it a vibrant and
intellectually fruitful area of educational research. Offering a
unique, systematic exploration of the work of the founders of
comparative educational research, North American Scholars of
Comparative Education emphasizes the importance of understanding
the accomplishments of key historical figures in the field, and
considers the legacies such individuals have created. Chapters move
beyond descriptions of comparativists' work, to illustrate the
pivotal role played by each scholar in driving a progression
through humanistic and scientific approaches, to new
epistemological traditions within the field of comparative
education. This in turn reveals critical historical-epistemological
transitions which have had lasting impacts on the field. Including
contributions written by leading scholars in the field, this volume
will be of great interest to researchers, academics and scholars in
comparative and international education.
