Synopsis: First published in 1986, Education, Recession and the World Village explores the effects of world economic recession on the educational arrangements of eight modern nations including Hong Kong, Australia, US, Nigeria, UK, and China and just how nations adjust their educational systems to meet these pressures. The idea that the world is a ‘global village’ where what affects the fabric of one country affects that of all the others is particularly stressed. This book will be of interest to students and researchers of education.
