abstract

Certain types of educational reforms are discussed or even implemented in many countries around the world. Their features are rather similar, at least in discourse and policy formulation, and it may be assumed that they derive from what could be called the world agenda or world models in education. The core of these models may be extracted from the documents published by the large international organizations (OECD, UNESCO, the World Bank). In the case of Europe, the European Union (EU) has added a dimension to this world agenda, and the EU agenda is disseminated through the Open Method of Coordination (OMC), among other measures and channels. This paper compares educational changes in three European countries in the light of the European and the world agendas.
