Perspectives internationales et transnationales sur l'histoire de l'éducation

Edited by Damiano Matasci

Histoire de l'éducation


This special issue brings together a series of articles offering international and transnational perspectives on the history of education in the contemporary era. Covering a wide range of topics, countries, and periods, these studies provide an opportunity to discuss two important historiographical developments that have shaped the discipline in recent years. First, the internationalization of research, with several articles focusing on educational trajectories in contexts outside of France, particularly in Europe and the colonial world. Second, the special issue highlights the diversity of fields that the "transnational turn" in historical research has opened up for exploration. Key questions, such as the role of the nation-state, the significance of circulatory regimes, and, lastly, how the international sphere was conceptualized and used by historical actors, are explored in depth. This situates the history of French education within a broader relational space that transcends its own borders.
