Documenting major intellectual and paradigmatic changes in the
field of comparative education in the light of the history and
development of the journal Comparative Education, this book
compiles a selection of articles from forty years of the journal's
distinguished history. It illustrates how changing times have been
reflected in the nature and quality of published comparative
research. Contributors explore the impact of key issues such as
marketisation, accountability and globalisation upon policy and
practice world-wide. They explore how new challenges faced by the
social sciences have seen shifts in the contexts, issues and
priorities attended to by comparatives and how different approaches
to comparative education have influenced the intellectual and
professional identities and positioning of those involved. Bridging
theoretically oriented scholarship with empirically grounded
research relating to issues of policy and practice and with
chapters addressing questions of relevance throughout the world,
this book is an invaluable resource of ideas and stimuli for
further thinking and research.
