Amid a rapidly evolving global education landscape shaped by technological innovation, shifting policy environments, socio-political change, and continued emphasis on equity and inclusion, this volume provides scholars and practitioners comprehensive and reflective analyses of the key forces driving change in comparative and international education.
The Annual Review of Comparative and International Education 2025, Part A and B (ARCIE 2025) advance scholarship in the field by providing a structured and comprehensive synthesis of major developments. The primary aim is to provide a critical overview of the forces shaping comparative and international education research and practice. To this end, the chapters: (1) synthesize key research trends through in-depth analyses of current debates, persistent challenges, and significant scholarly contributions; (2) bridge the research-to-practice divide by identifying pathways for translating empirical findings into policy and practice across diverse educational contexts; (3) examine regional and global dynamics by highlighting how political, social, and economic conditions shape educational systems in different parts of the world; and (4) explore emerging issues by engaging underexamined topics and methodological innovations that are redefining the field.
The Annual Review of Comparative and International Education 2025, Part A and B offer a timely and substantive contribution to the field by synthesizing emerging trends, theoretical developments, and practical applications shaping education systems worldwide.
