Description: Globalisms and Power examines the effects neoliberal globalization is having on Spanish and Portuguese educational and curriculum policies and practices. The book dissects the nexus between globalization (or globalisms) and power under a global policy momentum, and analyzes how neoliberal globalization strategies eagerly led by nongovernmental institutions determine the educational agenda in each nation.

Review Quotes: «João M. Paraskeva and Jurjo Torres Santomé's edited collection Globalisms and Power: Iberian Educational and Curriculum Policies, is an insightful and timely critique of the diverse and destructive ways in which neoliberalism has penetrated the heart of education and curriculum policy and practice.» (Susan L. Robertson, University of Bristol, UK)
