ABSTRACT
Global transitions are transforming national education and training systems around the world as nation-states drive re-regulatory education reform agendas. Since 2005, the Routledge World Yearbook of Education has engaged directly with globalization, compiling research and evidence, and also developing theory that helps to explain the character of our globalizing times and their implications for education and societies – learners and educators. Over nine annual volumes, the Yearbook has unravelled the dynamics of globalization in terms of shifting relations between nation-states and their education systems, and with global agencies and global flows of ideas, people and goods. In doing this, the Yearbook has developed an audit of globalization within national territories, and the re-spatialization of education, and of the ways in which this domain of social practice is represented in everyday life.
