In the 1960s and 1970s, the educational systems in Spain and Latin America underwent comprehensive and ambitious reforms that took place amid a "revolution of expectations" arising from decolonization, global student protests, and the antagonism between capitalist and communist models of development. Deploying new archival research and innovative perspectives, the contributions to this volume examine the influence of transnational forces during the cultural Cold War. They shed new light on the roles played by the United States, non-state actors, international organizations and theories of modernization and human capital in educational reform efforts in the developing Hispanic world.

Depending on their national level of income, development and modernization, all countries in the world can be generally categorized as either advanced or developing. Studies on why advanced countries continue to develop, how they maintain their level of development, and how developing countries enter into the advanced club fall into the field of “modernization science,” which is an emerging interdisciplinary science. This monograph, the first English book available on “modernization science,” interprets its concepts, methodologies, general theories, first and second modernization, six level-specific, six field-specific and three sector-specific modernizations, modernization policy and evaluation, and the principles and methods of national development since the 18th century. It provides clear, systematic, up-to-date information on this new discipline with more than 173 figures and 265 tables, and covers 131 countries and 97% of the global population. A comprehensive outlook on world modernization is presented from a Chinese perspective.
Gu Mingyuan’s Educational Thought
This book systematically reviews the educational thought of Mr. Gu Mingyuan, one of the most prestigious educationists in contemporary China, and details the development of his pioneering educational ideas. The content covers virtually all areas of education, from pre-school to higher education and lifelong learning, from general education to vocational education and informal learning. In the process, it comprehensively reflects Mr. Gu’s insights on global education and his perspectives on Chinese education, reviews China’s educational history, assesses the status quo, and outlines the future of education. Since he has not only been a significant witness but also a key promoter of all major educational changes since China’s reform and opening up over the past 40 years, this book is more than a personal biography of a Chinese educationist; rather, it epitomizes the evolution of China’s educational thinking over the past four decades.
