Continuing Joel Spring's reportage and analysis of the intersection
of global forces and education, this text offers a comprehensive
overview and synthesis of current research, theories, and models
related to the topic. Written in his signature clear, narrative
style, Spring introduces the processes, institutions, and forces by
which schooling has been globalized and examines the impact of
these forces on schooling in local contexts. Significant conceptual
frameworks are added to this Second Edition, specifically the
"economization of education," "corporatization of education" and
the "audit state." These concepts are embedded in the global
educational plans of major organizations such as the World Bank,
the Organization for Economic Development and Cooperation (OECD),
World Economic Forum, and multinational corporations. Globalization
of Education, Second Edition features new and updated information
on * The World Bank * OECD and the United Nations * The World Trade
Organization and the Global Culture of Higher Education *
Corporatization of Global Education * Religious and Indigenous
Education Models * The Global Workforce: Migration and the Talent
Auction * Globalization and Complex Thought
