"Reimagining Globalization and Education is exactly the kind of book that is required now.  It provides crucial insights into the limits and possibilities of our understandings of the global transformations that are having such powerful effects on education."

Michael W. Apple, John Bascom Professor Emeritus, University of Wisconsin, Madison

"How have the imaginaries of globalization changed over time? How have they affected education? How are they challenged today? A well written and thought-provoking book written by great scholars that are internationally known for their work on theory, policy, and international comparison in educational research, which sets an agenda for post-neoliberal educational futures."

Gita Steiner-Khamsi, Professor, Teachers College, Columbia University and Director NORRAG

"Reimagining Globalization and Education offers a powerful and important analysis by leading scholars of education and globalization. Collectively they address the state of world dis-order arising from the exhaustion of modernity, the failed promise of neoliberalism, shifting geo-strategic developments in the East, calls for decolonization, and for a more sustainable future. Most importantly they ask: what is to be done, and make the case not just for diagnosis, but for acts of imagination regarding the future of education, and how it might be different."

Susan L. Robertson, Professor of Sociology of Education, University of Cambridge, UK. 

"In a set of original articles by internationally leading education researchers, Reimagining Globalization and Education provides a sharp-sighted analysis of the changing character of globalization of education. It is a most welcome and seminal work, likely to become a stepping-stone for further research on globalization of education."

  Lisbeth Lundahl, senior professor, University of Umeå, Sweden.
