Sinopsis

The Teacher and the State explores the dynamic relationship between the state and teachers using a theory of global cultural dynamics. Through a comparison of eight Nordic and East Asian regions, the authors examine how interactions between teachers and the state influenced the teaching profession, educational policies, reforms, and social capacities.

The book explores the responses of regional and national actors to international reforms and policy discussions within a globally influenced education system. The authors illustrate how the teaching profession has been pivotal in shaping national identity, generating human capital, and more recently, enhancing a society’s ability to adapt to change. In a world where global forces can significantly impact national education, they examine how regional and national actors respond uniquely to globally spreading reforms and transnational policy dialogues.

This is a valuable resource for graduate courses in comparative education, international politics, and teacher education. It provides extensive historical, qualitative, and quantitative data linked to core theories, and critiques the impact of globalization on academic research, engaging with global governance theories to refine assumptions about organizational power in a globalized world.
