Globalization and International Education introduces key international issues in education and considers the changes in education stemming from the rapid social, economic and cultural transformations associated with globalization. Grounded in a strong conceptual, theoretical framework, this accessible text will guide the reader through this evolving area.

Reflective exercises, chapter summaries and useful websites will encourage and support student learning and the application of new concepts. Recent debate and developments are considered, including:

- international aid, education and development
- education in conflict and emergencies
- education and the 'knowledge economy'

Globalization and International Education is essential reading for undergraduate and graduate students studying education.
