Description:Learning from Comparing is a major two-volume study which reassesses the contribution of comparative educational research and theory to our understanding of contemporary educational problems and to our capacity to solve them. At a time when educational research is under attack on the grounds of 'bias' and 'irrelevance', and under pressure to address only those questions which are acceptable politically (as good a definition of bias as any), this is a serious attempt to bridge the worlds of research, policy and practice. The editors have put together a collection - in terms of both perspective and nationality - which ensures contrasting viewpoints on each topic. CONTENTS: Robin Alexander. Introduction. PART ONE. COMPARATIVE EDUCATION IN THE 1990s: THEORY, METHOD AND CONTEXT: David Phillips. On Comparing; Patricia Broadfoot. Not So Much a Context, More a Way of Life? Comparative Education in the 1990s; Jürgen Schriewer. Coping with Complexity in Comparative Methodology: issues of social causation and processes of macro-historical globalisation; Robert Cowen. Late Modernity and the Rules of Chaos: an initial note on transitologies and rims; Michele Schweisfurth. Resilience, Resistance and Responsiveness: comparative and international education at United Kingdom universities; Julia Betts & Stephanie Wilde. Postscript. PART TWO. COMPARING CLASSROOMS AND SCHOOLS: Robin Alexander. Introduction: comparing classrooms and schools; Joseph Tobin. Method and Meaning in Comparative Classroom Ethnography; David Reynolds. Creating a New Methodology for Comparative Educational Research: the contribution of the International School Effectiveness Research Project; Robin Alexander. Culture in Pedagogy, Pedagogy across Cultures Maurice Galton. Commentary: interpreting classroom practice around the globe; Michele Schweisfurth. Postscript. PART THREE.
