Abstract
The Global Studies in Education (GSE) division is built upon the tradition of the Comparative and International Education program at Illinois. It includes faculty and students interested in examining the changing forms of global interconnectivity and interdependence and their implications for thinking about and researching educational policy and governance; the media and popular cultures; the politics of social identities; postcolonialism in education; gender, class and racial inequalities; the political economy of knowledge production and management; development and education; and issues concerning the new global ecologies of learning. The Faculty associated with the division have conducted research in most regions of the world, and have also written extensively on theories of globalization; postcoloniality; identity and the politics of representation; culture and education and the emerging role of international and nongovernment organizations in the development and evaluation of educational policies. They organize major international conferences; publish widely; consult with governments and nongovernment organizations; and edit various journals including Policy Futures in Education, Educational Philosophy and Theory; and E-Learning.[2]
