Comparative and International Education

An Introduction

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book introduces comparative and international education (CIE) to new students of the field. It guides the reader through the many ways that education can respond to recent political and social changes, such as the intense debates regarding nationalism, democratic participation, inequality, social justice, climate change, as well as the recent impact of the global pandemic. These changes have created major challenges for the study, practice, and teaching of comparative education worldwide and this book addresses those challenges. The first four sections cover the key theories, methods, practices, and the history of CIE and the fifth section includes ten case studies written by contributors from around the world which illustrate key debates in the field including gender rights, access to quality education, education finance, and ethnographic research. The book provides the tools needed for creating a more inclusive international education scholarship which meets and goes beyond the sustainable development goals. It includes a range of features to aid learning such as boxed bullet points, additional reading lists and end of chapter questions to be used to generate discussion.
