This book explores the interrelationship between ideology, the
state, and education reforms, placing it in a global context. It
examines some of the major education reforms and policy issues in a
global culture, particularly in light of recent shifts in quality
and standards-driven education, and policy research. The book
critiques the neo-liberal ideological imperatives of current
education and policy reforms, and illustrates the way the shifts in
the relationship between the state and education policy affect
current trends in education reforms and schooling globally. With
this as its focus, the book's individual chapters highlight
hand-picked scholarly research on major discourses in the field of
comparative education. A compendium of the very latest thinking on
the subject, the book - like the other volumes in the series -
offers a state-of-the-art sourcebook for researchers, practitioners
and policymakers alike. Not only do the chapters offer a timely
overview of current issues affecting comparative education and
education policy research in what is now a global educational
culture; they also outline future directions that education and
policy reforms could take. By doing so, they provide a
comprehensive picture of the intersecting and diverse discourses of
globalisation and policy-driven reforms in education. Individual
chapters critically assess the dominant discourses and debates on
education and policy reforms. Using diverse comparative education
paradigms from critical theory to historical-comparative research,
they address globalisation, ideology and democracy and examine both
the reasons for and outcomes of education reforms and policy
change. As such, they provide an informed critique of models of
quality and standards-driven education reforms that are informed by
Western dominant ideologies and social values.
