Lifelong Learning, Young Adults and the Challenges of Disadvantage in Europe
This open access book challenges international policy ‘groupthink’ about lifelong learning. Adult learning – too long a servant of business competitiveness – should be reimagined as central to democratic society. Young adults, especially from disadvantaged backgrounds, engage more in education and training, and learn more day-to-day at work, if provision is democratically organised and based on enduring and inclusive institutional networks, and when jobs encourage and reward the acquisition of skills. Using innovative qualitative and quantitative methods, the contributors develop a critical perspective on dominant policies, investigating – across the European Union and Australia â€...
Europe's Lifelong Learning Markets, Governance and Policy
This book explores European governance and policy coordination within lifelong learning markets. Using an instruments approach, the editors and contributors examine the ways in which governance mechanisms employed by the European Union influence policy to regulate lifelong learning, and intervene in lifelong learning markets, at both European and national levels. Filling an important gap in the current literature, this book examines how strengthened policy coordination at the EU level contributed to the blurring of boundaries between policy fields and the redefinition of the function of adult education after the 2008 recession. Divided into three parts, this book draws on a range of case studies from countries including Spain, Denmark, Bulgaria and the UK. It will be of interest and value to students and scholars of education policy and governance, adult education and lifelong learning.
Digital Governance of Education
Digital Governance of Education explores the multiple ways in which digital technologies are changing the experience of education. With much of the contemporary education practice either taking place or being documented digitally, a huge amount of data is constantly being collected and analysed to give sophisticated and up-to-date accounts of education practice in contemporary societies. Such 'datafication' of education, mediated through technology, gives rise to what the author defines as 'digital governance' of education – a transnational assemblage of people, technologies and policies that increasingly affects how national education systems are organized and managed. Paolo Landri argues...
Building Europe Through Education, Building Education Through Europe
This edited volume explores the role of education in the process of European cooperation and integration as it has been conceived and realized in the late 20th century and the early 21st century, as well as the mirror of this narrative: the effects of the European integration process on education. Through this dual analysis, the contributors reflect on the concept of Europeanization by showing the complex interplay between Europeanization through education and Europeanization of education. Part I offers a critical overview of the actors, spaces, actions, and pedagogies designed to promote the European project and build Europeans. Part II examines how work done on the European continental lev...

Giovani e Mezzogiorno
Giovani e Mezzogiorno raccoglie i testi oggetto della discussione sviluppatasi nella nona edizione di Giovanicome, riflessione organizzata a partire dal 1994, e che riunisce periodicamente nell'Università di Salerno studiosi, nazionali e non, della condizione giovanile, sociologi ed esponenti di discipline affini. Giovani e Mezzogiorno è stato il titolo del convegno in oggetto. I testi evidenziano una analisi della realtà meridionale, troppo spesso letteralmente dimenticata dalla politica come da tante agenzie e altrettanti intellettuali, nella convinzione del riproporsi del carattere nazionale della vicenda meridionale e delle sue contraddizioni, della risorsa che essa e tutti suoi abita...
