Globalization Unchained: Seven Major Challenges Facing Education is a book whose time has come. Ilghiz M. Sinagatullin demonstrates fresh insights and his remarkable gift in revealing how contemporary globalization impacts various facets of education The author indicates that the phenomenon of globalization and its relation to education has never dropped from the agenda within the previous three to four decades. Some politicians, scholars, educators, and students vehemently hate and do not accept this phenomenon. Others are somewhere in the middle: They are trying to gain an insight into this notion. Still others completely accept the idea of globalization, show their full understanding of this actuality, and associate with its current progressive changes in the new century's sociocultural and educational space. Sweeping all over the world and posing huge challenges to education, contemporary globalization: represents a grandiose challenge itself, permeating all cells of human society; necessitates the realization of global education, a key objective of which is developing school, college, and university students' global competence for them to productively function within their own microculture, mainstream culture, and within an interdependent world; has brought into the world scene the neoliberal agenda, the advocates of which call out loud for employing market principles across educational systems; has brought into the global educational space the English language, which has become a necessity for young people across the world, including also far-thinking and forward-looking educators and teacher educators; promotes a rapid moving from the classical to information paradigm; makes us pay particular attention to rural education, an entity too often ignored, unnoticed or wrongly interpreted by educators, teacher educators, and education policy makers; necessitates that those who teach and learn, lured by the charms of globalization and digitalization, should not forget the greatest educators and thinkers of the past, whose invaluable ideas and inestimable pedagogical experience have a strong influence on the contemporary generation of the teaching/learning public. The author's suggestions and recommendations in solving the challenges facing education are full of professional ingenuity and foresight. He supports the theoretical implications by pertinent examples drawn from his professional experience and observations. This book is special because it is aimed at discussing the problems that may interest educators all over the world, which increases its international status and power. The book may be a good source for secondary school teachers, teacher educators, pre-service and in-service teachers, education policy makers as well as parents. Ilghiz M.
