“The chapters in this book show a common thread, namely how the power of globalisation, technological advances and socio-political shifts are reshaping the priorities of education systems on various continents. This book serves as a comprehensive exploration of these shifts, offering readers valuable insights into the challenges and innovations in education worldwide. Therefore, I recommend this book as an important reference for policymakers, educators and researchers in the field of education.” (Anggi Afriansyah, International Review of Education, Vol. 72 (2), 2026)
