The Global and the Local
Diverse Perspectives in Comparative Education
Series: - Comparative and International Education: Diversity of Voices, Volume: 5 (Buenos Aires)
- The World Council of Comparative Education Societies, Volume: 5 (Buenos Aires)
The book examines how the understanding of the global and the local has changed in response to ongoing reconfigurations between the state and society. It also emphasizes the importance of schooling as an institution both within and across national contexts, a holistic approach that helps us move beyond a conglomeration of isolated local events to pay attention to global trends. In this regard, the book underscores the richness of contextual factors that may create opportunities for innovation, or may serve as constraints in the implementation process. As a whole, the book brings new questions about globalization and the imperatives of education policy and implementation.
