Set against the backdrop of globalization and global philanthropy,
this book offers new perspectives on the sociological dynamics and
governance implications of ‘social entrepreneurial’ policy in
education. It examines the spatialities, relationships and culture
that powerfully mediated the making and localisation of 'Teach for
Bangladesh'. This globalised and philanthropy-backed reform model
is based on 'Teach for America/All' (TfA) which promotes social
entrepreneurial solutions to educational problems across
continents. The authors demonstrate how TfB's policy model
travelled through networks of diaspora, finance, technology and
media and became established in Bangladesh through complex policy
work. The book documents empirical research from Bangladesh to draw
out broader implications in relation to education policy-making and
policy content in today’s globalizing world. The book also
contributes to ongoing debates in contemporary comparative
education about North-South dialogue, policy mobility and transfer,
philanthrocapitalism, and international teacher education.
