Notes
1. An advanced liberal economy associated with the dominant processes of globalization. It is also home to some of the world’s richest entrepreneurs’ philanthropic foundations that have significant global influence and transnational impact on education systems across jurisdictions.
2. These are central tenets of New Public Management (see Rhodes, Citation1997, pp. 48–49).
3. This comes gradually, replacing the older field-oriented model, which involves working with grassroots communities and organizations to democratically originate and develop solutions to social problems.
4. A derivative from ‘glocalization’, which denotes the hybridising ways local, national and global interrelationships are being reformulated within the mediational context of national culture and politics.
