Abstract:

This volume considers the ways in which educational research is being shaped by policy, across the globe. Policy effects on research are increasingly influential, as policies in and beyond education drive the formation of a knowledge-based economy by supporting increased international competitiveness through more effective, evidence-based interventions in schooling education and training systems. The 2006 volume of the World Yearbook of Education explores these issues, focusing on three key themes: Globalising policy and research in education, steering education research in national contexts and Global-local politics of education research.
