Education and Development in Central America and the Latin Caribbean : Global Forces and Local Responses PDF
Edited by D. Brent Edwards Jr., Mauro C. Moschetti, Pauline Martin, Ricardo Morales-Ulloa
Part of the Bristol Studies in Comparative and International Education series
Description
Rooted in an international political economy theoretical framework, this book provides unique insights into the global forces and local responses that are shaping education systems in Central America and the Latin Caribbean (CALC).
The book covers all Spanish-speaking countries of the CALC region and examines the effects of macro-economic pressures, geopolitical intervention, neo-colonial relationships, global pandemics, transnational gang networks, and the influence of international organizations.
Chapters analyse the challenges and opportunities these global forces present to education systems in the region as well as highlighting the local efforts to address, mitigate, and counteract them.
In doing so, the book illuminates how education can contribute to either maintaining or challenging inequalities and exclusion in the face of pressures from the global to local levels.
