This book brings together a number of perspectives focusing upon the relationship between neoliberal and neoconservative policies, which have worked in tandem to destabilize schools, universities and institutions for teacher education across numerous dimensions of their status as public institutions. In addition to analyzing how it has transformed the external dynamics of education from a public good or service offered to serve public interests to a private enterprise harnessed to the advantage of private interests, the book describes and analyses how this destabilization program has impacted on the internal dynamics of the management, teaching, and learning, in schooling and in teacher education.By linking reform policy impacts to detailed analysis of social processes this book will contribute to current demands for evidence-based policy development in economic, education, employment and social welfare policy. The chapters in this book will also be highly significant for developing an understanding of how public policy under neoliberalism shapes the economy, society and culture.
