Abstract
Since the publication of Rizvi and Lingard’s, Globalizing Education Policy (Routledge), major historical transformations have altered the space within which education policies are now developed and enacted. These shifts include the advance of new technologies and AI, the impact of climate change and changing labor markets, the growth in inequality, the changing role of universities and international organizations, attempts to regulate privatization, developments in global mobility, and the rise of nationalistic populism. Most notably, the contradictions of the neoliberal imaginary of globalization have now become abundantly clear. With the aim of promoting wide-ranging debates about these shifts, this introduction outlines how the chapters in this collection address the challenges to which these new conditions have given rise, and how the purposes and governance may now be re-imagined in more progressive directions, given the failures of the neoliberal and new managerialist reform agendas in education.
