In \u003ci\u003eEducation Governance and Social Theory\u003c\/i\u003e these important issues are critically examined through a range of innovative theoretical perspectives and methodological approaches to assist in guiding those interested in better understanding and engaging with education governance as an object of critical inquiry and a tool or method of research. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e With contributions from an international line-up of academics, the book judiciously combines theory and methodologies with case study material taken from diverse geo-political settings to help frame and enrich our understanding of education governance. This is a theoretically and empirically rich resource for those who wish to research education governance and its multifarious operations, conditions and effects, but are not sure how to do so. It will therefore appeal to readers who have a strong interest in the practical application of social theory to making sense of the complex changes underway in education across the globe.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAndrew Wilkins\u003c\/b\u003e is Reader in Education at the University of East London, UK. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eAntonio Olmedo \u003c\/b\u003eis Reader in Education Policy Sociology at the University of Bristol, UK, and Honorary Reader at the UCL Institute of Education, University College London, UK.\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 256\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.54 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 30, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42104519164039,"sku":"9781350159723","price":84.51,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/ca8dcb6571890c3377fdcc3022f12616.webp?v=1732425019","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/education-governance-and-social-theory-interdisciplinary-approaches-to-research-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
