Abstract

Over the past two decades the educational policies of neo-liberal nation states have exhibited contradictory tendencies, promoting both bureaucratic stan- dardization of curriculum and standardized evaluation on the one hand, and post- modern diversification on the other. Despite recent increases in bureaucratic standardization, I argue that the economic, social and cultural effects of globaliza- tion will pressure these states towards postmodern diversification of educational arrangements to strengthen their perceived legitimacy.
