Between global and national prescriptions for education administration: the rocky road of neoliberal education reform in Qatar
This study argues that the ENE initiative included contradictions that impeded the achievement of its main goals.

Epistemological shifts in knowledge and education in Islam: A new perspective on the emergence of radicalization amongst Muslims
Publication date: March 2020Source: International Journal of Educational Development, Volume 73Author(s): Amra Sabic-El-RayessAbstractI theorize that the idea of knowledge and education has shifted in Islam from an inclusive and rational search for all knowledge to a narrowed focus on religious knowledge, void of rationality. By synthesizing literature on education and knowledge in Islam, this study identifies three shifts in the cultural history of Islamic education. I argue that those shifts in what was deemed valuable knowledge have played a significant role in the emergence of radicalization today. The study shows that...

Human Capital Index and the hidden penalty for non-participation in ILSAs
Publication date: March 2020Source: International Journal of Educational Development, Volume 73Author(s): Ji Liu, Gita Steiner-KhamsiAbstractThe World Bank’s Human Capital Index (HCI) aims to provide new information regarding future productivity of each country’s workforce, by synchronizing available International Large-Scale Assessment (ILSA) and regional test program results. Linking the literature on ILSA participation, this study questions the problematic nature of this approach and revisits the comparability issue of ILSA results. We find that education systems are imposed upon a score penalty depending on which I...

Pain without gain?: Impact of school rationalisation in India

However, the impact of this policy on access to schooling and learning remains empirically unexplored. Utilising ASER 2014 data, this paper asks...
