Educators, professionalism and politics offers ways of understanding how and with what consequences national systems of education and the work of education professionals are being reregulated in the context of contemporary global transitions. Globalization does not just create transnational organizations, relations and practices; it also transforms nation-states by creating more complex education spaces that impinge on the work of educators and the learning that they enable, globally, nationally and locally. This volume of the World Yearbook of Education focuses firmly on the educators themselves. It documents the way educators encounter and renegotiate ideas and practices that travel globally as they seek to enact their established professional projects. This framing recognises that educators' spaces, work and identities are historically anchored in national institutional trajectories, but are both disturbed and renewed as globally mobile ideas and practices "touch down" within national systems of education. The chapters examine the effect of global transitions on educators and education, and offers new perspectives on educational work in different parts of the world today. They challenge bleak assessments of teacher de-professionalization and idealistic narratives about professional development. Chapters highlight the significance of educators' occupational boundary work and the resources and networks they mobilize through their professional projects as they make and remake education in national spaces. The volume tracks: Re-regulatory trajectories evident in national education spaces and their impact on educators; The way educators renegotiate globally mobile ideas, practices and national institutional trajectories, as they mediate global formations emerging in the national space; and The kinds of mediations and resources that enable education professionals to engage with the politics of professionalization. This volume of The World Yearbook of Education will be of great interest to Education researchers, graduate students, teacher educators and education policy-makers.

If you need to parse or process text data in Linux or Unix, this classic book explains how to use flex and bison to solve your problems quickly - whether you're interpreting code, configuration files, or any other structured format. "Flex and Bison" is the long-awaited sequel to the classic O'Reilly book, "Lex and Yacc". In the nearly two decades since that book was published, the "Flex and Bison" utilities have proven to be more reliable and more powerful than the original Unix tools. This book covers the same core functionality vital to Linux and Unix program development, along with several important new topics. This thoroughly updated edition will help you: address syntax crunching that regular expressions tools can't handle; build compilers and interpreters, and handle a wide range of text processing functions; learn key programming techniques, including syntax trees and symbol tables; implement a full SQL grammar, with complete sample code; and, use new features such as pure (reentrant) lexers and parsers, powerful GLR parsers, and interfaces to C++. This book includes revised tutorial sections for novice users and reference sections for advanced users, with chapters that explain each utility's basic usage and simple, stand-alone applications. Dive into "Flex and Bison" and discover the wide range of uses these flexible tools provide.
