Annotation: In i Globalization and Education: Critical Perspectives /i, an outstanding group of international contributors explore the increasingly important dimensions of globalization as it affects educational policy and practice in nation-states around the world. Changing conditions in a globalized world-including travel, international media, transnational capitalism, and the role of global organizations and institutions-all have profound implications for the formation and implementation of education policy. Addressing such issues as feminism, multiculturalism, and new technology, this collection of original essays will broaden the context in which educational policy decisions are viewed. br Contributors: Michael W. Apple, Jill Blackmore, Nicholas C. Burbules, Juan Ramon Capella, Luiza Cortesao, Greg Dimitriadis, Patrick Fitzsimmons, Douglas Kellner, Bob Lingard, Allan Luke, Carmen Luke, James Marshall, Cameron McCarthy, Raymond A. Morrow, Michael Peters, Thomas S. Popkewitz, Fazal Rizvi, Stephen R. Stoer, and Carlos Alberto Torres.
