The Politics of Scale in Policy (eBook, ePUB)

Scalecraft and Education Governance

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Succeeding in the art of contemporary policymaking involves designing policies which reflect the deeply interconnected nature of political space. Nevertheless, policy continues to be articulated through age-old categories and hierarchies of scale. This book asks why scale occupies this enduring position of privilege in policymaking, highlighting how scales are far from 'natural' features of policy and that they are instead essential to the armoury of policy practice. Drawing on empirical data from the field of education governance, the book traces how scales are crafted and mobilised in policymaking practices, demonstrating that 'scalecraft' is key to understanding the production of hegemony.
