Transformations of the State |
| Description: |
Transformation of Education Policy deals with internalization processes in education policy and their impact on national policy making. It investigates national responses to the PISA study for secondary education and the Bologna study for tertiary education. |
| Synopsis: |
Education policy is in transformation. Internationalization processes in this field have triggered extensive public debates and compelled policy makers to restructure their national education systems. This book deals with the political consequences of the PISA Study for secondary education and the Bologna Process for tertiary education. Both are prominent political issues with substantial impact on the political debate all over Europe and beyond. However, scholars of political science and political sociology have been reluctant to give them sufficient attention. Transformation of Education Policy contains five in-depth country case studies on Germany, Switzerland, England, New Zealand and - as a contrasting case -- the USA. These case studies are combined with comparative network analysis and quantitative analysis of the OECD world. |
