The question of how agents,
configurations of Swiss educational policy and their programmatic
adjust to the internationalisation of educational policy is
the central idea in this research paper. It is assumed that
central as well as differentiated oriented agents in educational
policy will participate in international projects. The starting
point of the investigation is the development of historical
contrasts between vertical, highly standardised and horizontal
co-ordinators. Historically speaking the second orientation
is clearly dominant in most policy fields, except that of educational
policy where in addition to the second it also developed the
first. The educational political field was increasingly differentiated
during the expansion phase of the educational policy system
in the second half of the 20th century. New agents show up and
the traditional ones remain with their scientific oriented theories.
At the same time both historical orientations exhausted themselves
programmatically. The stronger appearance of international agents
such as the OECD and the EU, thus the prominence of international
forums, constellations and strategies becomes a commonly shared
reference for the historically decentralised oriented agents
aiming at difference as well as for the historically centralised
agents aiming at unification. |
