The Bloomsbury Handbook of Theory in Comparative and International Education Summary

The Bloomsbury Handbook of Theory in Comparative and International Education by Dr tavis d. jules (Loyola University Chicago, USA)

This book offers a practical and approachable overview of central theories in comparative and international education (CIE). The chapters focus in depth on specific theoretical perspectives and seek to elucidate the histories, assumptions, and recent developments of these theories. The chapters also situate the theories within CIE, include specific case studies of theoretical application, and outline suggestions for further reading. Written by leading scholars from around the world, this is must-have reference work for anyone teaching, researching, studying, or working in CIE. The handbook includes chapters on a diverse collection of theories, including but not limited to: Structural-functionalism, Colonialism/Imperialism, Marxism, Human Capital Theory, Dependency/World Systems Theory, Post-Colonialism, Post-Socialism, Post-Foundationalism, Neo-liberalism, Neo-Institutionalism, Neo-Marxism, Policy Borrowing and Lending, Peace Theories, Human Rights, Constructivism, Racism, Gender, Queer Theory, Social Network Theory, Capabilities Theory, and Cultural Political Economy.

The Bloomsbury Handbook of Theory in Comparative and International Education Reviews

This is an excellent project. It is brilliantly timed, worth continuing, and perhaps worth expanding. The editors (and the publisher) are to be congratulated on seeing something so simple, important - and absent - amid the confusions of a rapidly changing field of study ... This book is remarkable. * Comparative Education *
This book is a unique resource for anyone interested in the study of comparative and international education. It presents, in an accessible yet rigorous way, a broad set of theoretical concepts and tools that help us advance our understanding in this rapidly evolving field. * Manuel Souto-Otero, Professor of Social Sciences, Cardiff University, UK *
This thoughtfully complied handbook is an impressive achievement. It includes a range of outstanding essays that not only provide accounts of major theoretical traditions in comparative and international education but also introduce readers to some of the most exciting new developments in the field. * Fazal Rizvi, Emeritus Professor, University of Melbourne, Australia *
This book represents the most comprehensive and trenchant treatment of theory in comparative and international education that I have seen. As such, I predict it will become as indispensable a work for comparativists of education as there is in the field. * Erwin H. Epstein, Professor Emeritus, Cultural and Educational Policy Studies, Loyola University Chicago, USA *
The book offers a comprehensive range of theoretical traditions and approaches that have shaped the field of comparative and international education as developed in the English-speaking world. Themes and contributors are carefully chosen to demonstrate where the field has come from and where it might be headed to. The book will become an essential text for those who wish to be introduced to, contribute to and deconstruct the paradigm-setting discourse of comparative and international education. * Keita Takayama, Graduate School of Education, Kyoto University, Japan *
