Edu.net

<p><em>Edu.net </em>builds upon, and extends, a series of research studies of education policy networks and global policy mobilities. It draws on comprehensive data resulting from a Leverhulme Trust research study focused on Africa, and a study funded by the British Academy focused on India, which explored the way<em> </em>in which global actors and organisations bring policy ideas to bear and are joined up in a global education policy network.</p><p>This timely and cutting-edge new work develops concepts, analyses and methods deployed in <em>Education Plc (2008), Networks, New Governance and Education (2012) </em>and<em> Global Education Inc. (2012).</em> The research is framed by an elaboration of Network Ethnography, an innovative method of policy research. </p><p><em>Edu.net</em> presents the substantive findings of the authors’ research by focusing on various kinds of policy movement – people, ideas, practices, methods, money. The book is about both global education policy and ways of researching policy in a global setting. It is an essential read for policy analysts, educational academic researchers and postgraduate education students alike.</p> <p>1. Networks, globalisation and policy mobility 2.
