Description
Summary:The “indirect effects” of the dynamics of globalization on the field of education are visible both in the changes in the process of designing education policies and in the reconfiguration of the governance of education. Thus, concerning the Bologna Process, what seems to be on the agenda is the convergence with the model of market regulation through the creation of mechanisms and entities such as systems and agencies of quality guarantee and accreditation. Furthermore, the form of regulation determined by objectives constitutes a decisive development in processes of management of social and educational change in several sectors of education systems. The guiding project of constructing a European Educational Space and the lifelong learning paradigm seem to be part of the new legitimizing myths that derive from the desire to involve in one enveloping sweep the physical, social and symbolic regulation of the territory and the creation of subjects.
