Early Childhood Learning Guidelines in Latin America and the Caribbean
This report details a comparative analysis of early learning guidelines (ELGs) for infants and toddlers less than 3 years of age in Latin America and the Caribbean. The 19 ELGs evaluated are utilized by 12 national and 7 regional programs located in 13 countries in the region. Three types of programs are included in this report: parenting programs (n=3), community centers (n=4) and child development centers (n=12). Two of the twelve child development center programs fall beyond the age range of this research (0-3 years) and are included as case studies. While parenting programs are included in this analysis, caution should be given to directly comparing their results to the results from community center or child development center programs. As described in the paper, parenting programs represent a distinct type of intervention.
Globalization on the Margins
The essays in Globalization on the Margins explore the continuities and changes in Central Asian education development since the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991. Reflecting on two decades of post-socialist transformations, they reveal that education systems in Central Asia responded to the rapidly changing political, economic, and social environment in profoundly new and unique ways. Some countries moved towards Western models, others went backwards, and still others followed entirely new trajectories. Yet, elements of the “old” system remain. Rather than viewing these post-Soviet transformations in isolation, Globalization on the Margins places its analyses within the global contex...
Skills, not just Diplomas

Pautas para el aprendizaje temprano en América Latina y el Caribe
Este informe presenta un análisis comparativo de las pautas para el aprendizaje temprano (de aquí en adelante PAT) de niños y niñas menores de 3 años en América Latina y el Caribe. Las PAT evaluadas se utilizan en 12 programas nacionales y 7 regionales localizados en 13 países de la región. Se incluyen tres tipos de programas: programas parentales (3), centros comunitarios (4) y centros de desarrollo infantil (12). Dos de los doce programas que operan bajo la modalidad de centros de desarrollo infantil rebasan el rango de edad que cubre esta investigación (0-3 años), por lo que figuran como estudios de caso al final de este documento. Si bien los programas parentales representan un tipo distinto de intervención y las comparaciones directas con las otras dos modalidades deben ser evitadas, estos se incluyen en este análisis.

Autoritäre Herrschaftsstrategien
Anja Franke-Schwenk analysiert die Herrschaftsstrategien der kasachstanischen Präsidentschaft im Zeitraum von 1991-2011 vor dem besonderen Hintergrund des Ressourcenreichtums. Dabei arbeitet sie vier Strategien heraus: Strategie der Freundschafts- und Familienbande, Kooptationsstrategie, Repressionsstrategie sowie Pazifizierungsstrategie. Die Analyse der rentierstaatlichen Herrschaftsstrategien erfolgt im Kontext einer ausführlichen Studie über die kasachstanische politische und wirtschaftliche Elite und deren neopatrimonialen Verflechtungen. Hierbei reflektiert die Autorin die klassischen Erklärungskonzepte neopatrimonialer Herrschaft kritisch und bietet Alternativen an.
