Globalization and Education (Routledge Key Ideas in Education) Book

Globalization and Education : Paperback : Taylor & Francis Ltd : 9780415881630 : 0415881633 : 01 May 2023 : Globalization and Education provides a critical introduction to various theories of globalization and the implications they are assumed to have for educational policy and practice. Using the current global financial crisis as a backdrop, internationally renowned author Fazal Razvi examine a series of questions about the ways in which globalization has been variously represented in theoretical, policy and popular discourses. In clear, concise language, Rizvi argues that the problem is not the idea of globalization itself but a particular ideological representation of the manner in which educational policy and practice should be aligned to its dictates. Both an introduction to the topic and a fresh analysis designed to elicit wide-ranging discussions, this valuable teaching resource is ideal for courses in education policy and education studies, and essential reading for anyone who wishes to read more about the issues and controversies at the intersection of globalization, education, and society.Read More
