Written by leading academics from Canada, India, Netherlands, South Africa, UK, USA, and New Zealand, this second edition has been fully updated in light of recent changes in the field, such as the introduction of the Sustainable Development Goals and the increased focus on environmental sustainability and equality. The book includes three new chapters on private providers, decolonisation and learning outcomes as well as a range of pedagogical features including key concept boxes, biographies of influential thinkers and practitioners, further reading lists, questions for reflection and debate, and case studies from around the developing world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a well-crafted edited volume that provides one of the best introductions to the field of education and international development. The second, fully updated, edition captures the challenges that emerged with Covid-19, Black Lives Matters and ongoing events. Readers will engage with a diversity of literatures while deepening their own knowledge with critical reflexivity. * Michael Crossley, Professor of Comparative and International Education, University of Bristol, UK *\u003cbr\u003eThe study of comparative education, global studies in education and international development are changing and have always represented shifting and fluid paradigms, as well as intersectionality.  Here is a text that is self-consciously engaging with these, sometimes invisible, attributes.  The 2nd edition is a text of deployment, contextualizing complexity and intersectionality in analyses that open the discourse, present platforms from which students and practitioners may find their way forward towards building more relevant, socially just scholarship and policy. * Sonia Mehta, Visiting Assistant Professor of Educational Studies, Macalester College, USA *\u003cbr\u003e[1st Edition] Honourable Mention at the 2016 Prose Awards * Prose Awards *\u003cbr\u003eMcCowan and Unterhalter's compendium on the interplay between education and international development is timely, useful and inherently significant ... A compelling choice for student audiences. * Progress in Development Studies (of the first edition) *\u003cbr\u003eTristan McCowan and Elaine Unterhalter have brought together an outstanding group of scholars to examine the inextricable links between education and development. Aimed at students and practitioners, this volume raises timely questions about knowledge production and its translation in the politically-contentious worlds of education policy and development practice. * Frances Vavrus, Professor and Coordinator of Graduate Programs in Comparative and International Development Education at the University of Minnesota, USA (of the first edition) *\u003cbr\u003eThe book should become a mainstay of courses in comparative and international education, development and globalization studies, social policy, and international organizations. It also represents an informative and accessible text for policy analysts and practitioners in international agencies and NGOs. * Aaron Benavot, Professor of Global Education Policy at the University at Albany SUNY, USA (of the first edition) *\u003cbr\u003eA star-studded multi-disciplinary group of authors... this is a book many of us, including academics, professionals, national and international development agencies and undergraduate and postgraduate students working in the field of education and development have been waiting for. * Relebohile Moletsane, Professor and John Langalibalele Dube in Rural Education, University of KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa (of the first edition) *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNotes on Contributors  Acknowledgements  Introduction \u003cb\u003ePart I: Histories, Ideas and Actors in International Education\u003c\/b\u003e  1.
