Globalizing Education, Educating the Local
12 May 2010

Author: Ian Stronach Publisher: Routledge (December 8, 2009) Price: $125.00


This book offers a critical account of global
discourses on education, arguing that these
overblown ‘hypernarratives’ are neither
economically, technically nor philosophically defensible. Their
‘mythic economic instrumentalism’ mimic rather than meet
the economic needs of global capitalism in ways that the Crash
of 2008 brings into vivid disarray.
