Description
Summary:This book has emerged from the concern to give greater attention to how comparative education is being taught, or advocated for, in teacher education within higher education institutions. The goal of the book is to consider the ideological and conceptual landscape - both the social and the political spaces in which comparative and international education (CIE) is situated - and what these changes mean for the teaching of CIE. The intellectual and social aims and purposes of CIE are also examined, as are the sociopolitical issues and trends influencing its practice. The contributing authors explore the philosophical, sociological, political and cultural aspects of teaching CIE, drawing upon their own particular epistemological leanings and professional convictions
