Educational Multilateralism and World (Dis)Order.
Mundy, Karen
Comparative Education Review, v42 n4 p448-78 Nov 1998
Explores the social foundations and contradictions of formal multilateralism in education since 1945. Discusses the emergence of UNESCO in the 1950s-60s as mediator between developing and donor nations, construction of an ideology linking educational and economic development, the rise of "basic needs" programming in the 1970s, and the erosion of redistributive multilateralism in the global economy.
