Transnational German Education and Comparative Education Systems cover

This book presents an in-depth look at the state of transnational education and comparative perspectives on education systems between Germany and other nation states. It explores how a transnational education identity in secondary and tertiary institutions has developed in the German and other national contexts and which lessons can be learned from current challenges and successes of education systems. It uses detailed case studies to promote critical rethinking of current educational practices in high schools and universities, specifically of race, gender, religion and learner ability in educational settings. It understands learning and teaching as an arena to discuss transnational education opportunities in the 21st century as an emerging or evolving discourse on contemporary forms of transnationalism.

“The robust impression of Germany’s transnational education provision from bilingual elementary schools to bilateral universities is a rich contribution that not only scholars of international and comparative education can enjoy. This book opens a range of viewpoints from which other countries’ TNE provision can be explored and investigated. … The Germans are on to something—and I hope international education practitioners and scholars read this book and allow it to provide them with thought-provoking impulses for their own institutional, national, and societal contexts.” (Jessica D. Schüller, Research in Comparative and International Education, September 21, 2020)
