Elite Education: International perspectives
Editat de Claire Maxwell, Peter Aggletonen Limba Engleză Paperback – 19 oct 2015
Through country-level case studies, this book offers readers an in-depth account of elite education systems in the Anglophone world, in Europe and in the emerging financial centres of Africa, Asia and Latin America. A series of commentaries highlight commonalities and differences between elite education systems, and offer insights into broader theoretical issues, with which educationalists, researchers and policy makers are engaging .
With authors including Stephen J. Ball, Donald Broady, Rubén Gaztambide-Fernández, Heinz-Hermann Krüger, Maria Alice Nogueira, Julia Resnik and Agnès van Zanten, the book offers a benchmark perspective on issues frequently glossed over in comparative education, including the processes by which powerful groups retain privilege and ‘elite’ status in rapidly changing societies.
Elite Education – International Perspectives will appeal to policy makers and academics in the fields of education and sociology. Simultaneously it will be of special relevance to post-graduates enrolled on courses in the sociology of education, education policy, and education and international development.

Descriere
Private and Elite Education: Global debates brings together international contributions to examine how the increasing privatisation of education is consolidating yet changing the ways in which elite groups are schooled. It explores the motivations behind research on private and elite education, and examines outcomes in relation to understandings of inequality, as well as the extent to which research influences national and international policy debates.
