The Transnational in the History of Education (eBook, PDF)

Concepts and Perspectives

Redaktion: Fuchs, Eckhardt; Roldán Vera, Eugenia

Beschreibung

This edited volume reflects on how the "transnational" features in education as well as policies and practices are conceived of as mobile and connected beyond the local. Like "globalization," the "transnational" is much more than a static reality of the modern world; it has become a mode of observation and self-reflection that informs education research, history, and policy in many world regions. This book examines the sociocultural project that the "transnational turn" evident in historical scholarship of the last few decades represents, and how a "transnational history" shapes how historians construct their objects of study. It does so from a multinational perspective, yet with a view of the different layers of historical meanings associated with the concept of the transnational.
