Now in its 5th edition, Comparative Education: The Dialectic of the Global and the Local has established itself as the state-of-the art, comprehensive as well as complex framework for taking into the dynamic interactions of local, national, regional, and transnational interactions shaping education systems around the world. Our theoretical and methodological strategy for this volume has proven effective as a standard textbook for introducing the field of comparative education from various theoretical and methodological perspectives.The 5th edition welcomes Lauren Misasziek of Beijing National University as co-editor.
