Abstract
Since the end of the Second World War, the growth of education is notable
for several reasons. First, the institutions of mass education have spread
to virtually all countries despite vast differences in political, economic,
social, and cultural organization. Second, rates of enrollment around the
world are high and represent enormous financial investments by many
impoverished states and economies.1 And, third, the rapidity of educational
expansion across states was unanticipated, its speed catching by
surprise both theorists and practitioners alike.
