Steuerung im transnationalen Bildungsraum: Internationales Bildungsmonitoring zum Lebenslangen Lernen
In: Theorie und Praxis der Erwachsenenbildung: Forschung
This international, comparative study looks at the impact of international organisations on the implementation of educational policies using the concept of lifelong learning as an example. Influenced by the EU and the OECD, lifelong learning has become a central theme of international educational policies.
The author examines the reception and the implementation of the concept of lifelong learning in models of educational monitoring and news coverage in three European countries (Germany, Finland and Greece). Even though the interpretations of the concept differ in the three chosen countries due to cultural differences, the results still confirm the establishment of lifelong learning as a pioneering vision and the guiding and controlling potential of international organizations.
