The New Localism in American Education
Volume 108, Issue 1
Edited by Robert L. Crowson and Ellen Goldring
This yearbook defines and discusses the new spirit of localism in education. "The New Localism," as this movement is called, is not a denial and refutation of national goals and centralizing reforms. It is, rather, a refocusing of attention upon local districts, communities, and neighborhoods in the context of national and even global educational objectives. The papers in this volume explore, unpack and illustrate the perspectives, practices and implications of this concept in education.

Globalization and the Study of Education
Volume 108, Issue 2
Edited by Thomas S. Popkewitz and Fazal Rizvi
This yearbook brings together leading educational scholars who focus on how globalization is reshaping the study of education. Exploratory and interdisciplinary in nature, these papers challenge taken-for-granted assumptions, and lead readers to develop new perspectives on one of the most significant issues facing educators today.
