International Handbook on Education Development in the Asia-Pacific cover

The Springer International Handbook of Educational Development in Asia Pacific breaks new ground with a comprehensive, fine-grained and diverse perspective on research and education development throughout the Asia Pacific region. In 13 sections and 127 chapters, the Handbook delves into a wide spectrum of contemporary topics including educational equity and quality, language education, learning and human development, workplace learning, teacher education and professionalization, higher education organisations, citizenship and moral education, and high performing education systems. The Handbook is grounded in specific Asia Pacific contexts and scholarly traditions, using unique country-specific narratives, for example, Vietnam and Melanesia, and socio-cultural investigations through lenses such as language identity or colonisation, while offering parallel academic discourse and analyses framed by broader policy commentary from around the world.


“The International Handbook on Education Development in the Asia-Pacific. Running to three volumes and over 2500 pages, this ambitious work aspires to provide a comprehensive snapshot of education in the region that is the economic powerhouse of the early twenty-first century.” (Edward Vickers, Comparative Education, February 14, 2024)
