Description+

How real is the collaboration between developing countries? Focusing on educational reform, this book turns the cutting-edge topic of South–South cooperation inside out with a set of challenging and diverse studies that explore what this concept means in practice. An impressive list of contributors examines the role of bi- and multilateral development agencies such as the World Bank, UNESCO, and UNDP; regions such as Africa, Latin America, and the Middle East; and countries such as Brazil, China, India, Japan, Jordan, Turkey, and South Africa. Providing succinct analyses of the new trend of international cooperation, this valuable resource:

  • Examines the institutional histories, rationales, varieties, and effects of South-South collaboration.
  • Investigates the occurrence, types, and content areas of South-South transfer, including triangular partnerships and bilateral and regional initiatives.
  • Explores the limits of and possibilities for South–South cooperation in the field of education.
  • Features a formidable combination of perspectives from different parts of the world.

Hillary A. Dachi, Sandra Gillespie, Yoko Mochizuki, Michelle Morais de Sá e Silva, Joel Samoff, Iveta Silova, Crain Soudien, Leon Paul Tikly.
