- W1903250771 abstract "Comparative and International Education: An Introduction to Theory, Method, and Practice by David Phillips and Michele Schweisfurth. London: Continuum International Publishing Group, 2008. 181 pp. ISBN 978-1-84706-059-4. As the field of comparative and international education evolves and continues to be defined and refined through the multidisciplinary contributions of its scholars, introductory textbooks providing students with a solid foundation for exploring future scholarship in the field become a necessity. David Phillips and Michele Schweisfurth have proved successful in meeting this challenge by offering a clearly written, well organized, and accessible overview of the field in their book, Comparative and International Education: An Introduction to Theory, Method, and Practice. Meant as an introduction to comparative and international education, the text reflects an experiential understanding of the foundation necessary for introductory students to begin academic exploration of scholarly topics in the field. Phillips and Schweisfurth engage in three areas of introduction: the theory and history of comparative and international education, research methods and inquiry, and the impact of education on development. They are also often able to intertwine their topics. For example, two chapters are devoted to development and methods: one offering an introduction to the “key ideas and questions” in education and national development, and the other explaining research perspectives used for conducting research on education and development. The authors move beyond a cursory discussion of methodological controversies by including multiple social science research perspectives such as anthropological perspectives, economic rationalism, Marxism, gender, and human rights. They also examine issues through a global security framework. What emerges is material that proves both instructive and of interest to introductory-level students. Important to a foundational textbook for any discipline, the authors incorporate theories, concepts, and ideas throughout the text from leading scholars in the field of comparative and international education including Marc-Antoin Jullien, Harold Noah, and Max Eckstein. It is worth pointing out that this well researched tome contains source-related endnotes following each chapter and 18 pages of references to scholarly articles and books, providing a wealth of potential reading for students to further or better understand material from the book." @default.
