"Comparative Education" brings together leading scholars in a
textbook that demarcates the changing boundaries of the field,
delineates significant developments in theory, and documents major
shifts in educational policy and practice around the globe. The
book's first section establishes the theoretical and methodological
framework for viewing the changing international and national
contexts of education from political, economic and cultural
perspectives. The second section explores principal issues related
to governance, such as centralization versus democratization, and
public versus private education; equality of educational
opportunity, especially pertaining to women; and the respective
roles of different levels of education in modernization and change,
putting literacy and adult basic education at one point of the
continuum and higher education at the other. The third section
documents the potential and limitations of educational reform
movements in different regions of the world.
