Qui fabrique vraiment les politiques d'éducation, pour qui et selon quelles logiques ? Ces politiques sont-elles fabriquées en priorité par et pour quelques groupes d'acteurs initiés ? Ces questions sont simples et fondamentales pour toute démocratie, encore plus en France où l'école est une institution centrale du modèle républicain. Néanmoins aucun ouvrage en français n'a encore été consacré à ce thème, alors que le policy making constitue un objet d'interrogation international depuis des décennies. Ce livre entend combler ce manque en proposant une revue de littérature intensive des travaux disponibles, francophones et anglophones. Il montre que la France a connu trois modèles de fabrique des politiques d'éducation depuis la Libération : la communauté de politique publique, la décommunautarisation et le puzzle accéléré. Ces modèles se sont sédimentés, ce qui a grandement complexifié cette fabrique. Face à cela, la tentation actuelle des responsables politiques semble d'aller toujours plus vite, l'accélération de la fabrique pouvant se faire au détriment de sa qualité.

"Israeli universities have long enjoyed a reputation as liberal bastions of freedom and democracy. Drawing on extensive research and making Hebrew sources accessible to the international community, Maya Wind shatters this myth and documents how Israeli universities are directly complicit in the violation of Palestinian rights. As this book shows, Israeli universities serve as pillars of Israel's system of oppression against Palestinians. Academic disciplines, degree programs, campus infrastructure, and research laboratories all service Israeli occupation and apartheid, while universities violate the rights of Palestinians to education, stifle critical scholarship, and violently repress student dissent. Towers of Ivory and Steel is a powerful expose of Israeli academia's ongoing and active complicity in Israel's settler-colonial project."--

This open access book examines the teaching and learning of English for employability in Vietnamese higher education. Its content is framed within one country to better examine the research issues within the influence of contextual factors. This book investigates how English can contribute to the development of students' employability capitals, particularly in the aspects of human capital, social capital, cultural capital, identity capital, and psychological capital. It presents employers' and employees’ perspectives of how and why English is increasingly important for career development. This book is a collection of discussions and viewpoints from teachers, students, and other stakeholders like employers, graduates, and course coordinators on current practices and their proposed improvements to prepare students for their future education, work and life. Based on empirical evidence, this book calls for repositioning English language education within the employability agenda to elevate its status and increase stakeholders' engagement. This book contributes to current debates on advancing the effectiveness of English language education in non-English speaking countries, as a response to internationalization and globalization.
