Prompted by the ongoing competency-based curriculum reforms on a global scale, this book examines where global frameworks like the OECD's core competency definitions are rooted and how they are borrowed, resisted, and\/or re-contextualized in various European states with a Christian, foremost Protestant educational-cultural heritage and Asian countries with a Confucian educational-cultural heritage. It highlights the roles that various factors, such as history, culture, religious attitudes, ideology, and state governance play in nation-states' re-contextualization of global curriculum policies and practices beyond a simplistic and dualistic globalism\/power and nationalism\/resistance dynamic. In doing so, it provides a global context to better understand individual nation-state's continuing curriculum reforms and school practices. At the same time, it situates individual nation-state's latest curriculum reforms and practices within an international community for healthy dialogues and mutual sharing. By selecting two educational cultural systems and wisdom Christian-Protestant and Confucian it also offers a springboard for international curriculum studies beyond the usual confinement of geopolitical nation-state constructs. It not only sheds new light on each nation-state s curriculum policies and practices, but also creates new collaboration spaces within similar and across disparate cultural educational regions. With its wide geopolitical and educational cultural scope, this book appeals to a global market and can be used in a variety of undergraduate and graduate courses in comparative education, history of education, curriculum theory, school and society, and curriculum history.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53589884567831,"sku":null,"price":17484.9,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/6918\/8119\/files\/9789811630095.jpg?v=1782717368","url":"https:\/\/payment.letskitaboo.com\/te\/products\/education-9789811630095","provider":"Kitaboo One eStore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
