Overview

How does the interplay between family, institution and profession characterise early childhood education worldwide? In this volume, the authors analyse the historical and theoretical developments in early childhood education from an international perspective. They show how different national educational approaches and state interventions influence the relationship between the family and the education system in times of globalisation. The volume offers an in-depth look at the challenges and opportunities arising from local and global educational practices.
