Synopsis
Comparative and international education is an increasingly important area of study. This book introduces major themes surrounding globalisation and education, giving you a nuanced understanding of key debates, thinkers and sources of information.

- Case studies from around the world raising thought-provoking questions on chapter topics
- How to undertake research using significant secondary sources of comparative international data (including OECD, PISA, TIMMS)
- The relationship between development, education and inequality
- The purpose and role of multicultural and citizenship education
- Gender and education in a global context
This is essential reading for students on undergraduate Education Studies degrees, and for similar courses covering comparative and international education.
