Within the literature on decolonizing the curriculum, a clear distinction is frequently made between diversity and decolonization.

Molla, Tebeje – London Review of Education, 2019
The World Bank uses a combination of financial and non-financial aid to influence educational reform in aid-recipient countries.

We examine the variation…

Situated within this historical…

Clark, Paul – London Review of Education, 2012
The period since the election in May 2010 has seen a number of very far-reaching reforms enacted in the higher education system in the UK, and especially England. These have been driven in large measure by the economic situation, but also by the aim to introduce a more market-based approach into the sector. At the same time, the higher education…

Dodds, Anneliese – London Review of Education, 2011
This article examines current debates surrounding British higher education funding from a political economy perspective, drawing on "positive" and "institutionalist" political economy.
