Series: Oxford Studies in Comparative Education

This book seeks to raise the discussion of globalization’s effects on teacher education, development and work, its reforms and institutions to a more theoretical and analytical level, and provide specific examples in the comparative tradition to illustrate teacher policy in the context of education systems’ wide-spread variability and complexity. The contributors
critically analyze current arrangements in teacher education, development and work and highlight the forces that enter in this contested terrain, the sources of conflict and convergence, the implication of these for teaching and learning, and for indigenous forms of knowledge and knowledge construction in the globalization era.
