ABSTRACT
Transnational organisations in education represent only part of the larger universe of education. For this reason, this chapter will proceed from macroanalytical perspectives on education, i.e. putting transnational educational organisations into the wider horizon of national, international, and transnational educational spaces. Following the outline on transnational educational spaces, the next section will focus on transnational organisations, which play a role in these educational spaces. Approaches to categorise transnational (or cross-border) education are discussed and a typology for the analysis of transnational educational organisations is developed. In addition, examples of organisations operating in these fields are illustrated. Finally, the chapter summarises some of the findings and highlights, a few general ideas, and possible research hypotheses on this topic.
