Abstract
As editor-in-chief of the book series that hosts this book, I am glad to see the extent to which the topics discussed here refer to what has been already published in other volumes of the same series. For example, Omi (2015) discussed the globalization of education in Japan as well as the always complex relationship between alterity, values, and socialization processes that has been explored in all its multifaceted components in the volume edited by Branco and Oliviera (2018). In addition, the tensioned dialogue between education and culture, which is one of the axes of this volume, represents the core of the recent book edited by Hviid and Märtsin (2019). This makes evident the increasing preoccupation of a group of international scholars who are questioning the rampant neoliberal discourse circulating in educational settings worldwide (Szulevicz, May Eckerdal, Marsico& Valsiner, 2016).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
