Education is increasingly shaped by new dynamics of power and influence, connecting global processes and networks with domestic policies and practices in complex ways. New modes of control in education include the growth of accountability regimes that set new frames for how to steer and manage education. They also include large-scale assessment systems that range from the early years to higher education. Surveillance mechanisms and data infrastructures, legitimated by discourses of quality, efficiency, and fairness, redefine the relations between teachers, students and knowledge at any level. Education in any context is not only subject to direct control by state institutions but is also shaped by multi-lateral agencies, for-profit actors, and transnational interest groups.

These issues have been unfolding for many years and are now complicated by a number of urgent challenges. One of these relates to rapid processes of digitalization, including the potential and limitations associated with artificial intelligence, on-line learning support technologies and the role of new media, all of which are redefining the purposes and processes of education.
