Description

Elite Schools in Globalising Circumstances offers a deep look into how schooling functions within a changing world. This work moves beyond the limits of methodological nationalism to examine how elite education operates on a global scale. Through a collection of theoretical and empirical research, an international group of scholars examines the connections between education and social structures. The book is built on a five-year global ethnography covering elite schools in nine different countries. These specific nations are defined by colonial histories linked to England. By studying these settings, the contributors provide a new way to look at elite class formation and the role of schools in contemporary society. This text is a valuable resource for those studying sociology, anthropology, and the impact of globalization on educational systems.
