Produktbeschreibung

This book explores and identifies the conditions needed for the emergence of political subjectivities in international educational contexts, where neoliberal policies and practices are repeated, performed and transformed. Chapters address key theoretical discussions surrounding the different, and sometimes contradicting, norms in neoliberalism and their relationship to education, economy and politics.
