 Call For Papers: International Perspectives on School Choice 

Volume 3, No. 1, February 1, 2016 

Editors: Ann Allen, Ohio State University and Marytza Gawlik, Florida State University 

School choice and the market approach to public education is an important international phenomenon. Although school choice takes various forms across the globe, there is a myriad of common issues. School choice and the privatization of schooling raise questions about how choice schools are managed, including the use of private management organizations, the role of marketing in K-12 education, the tensions related to school choice admissions, and of course funding dilemmas school choice policies create. We particularly solicit works that approach topics from multidisciplinary perspectives, including law, economics, political science, education, etc. This issue of Global Education Review will focus on the issues and challenges that educators, researchers, and policy makers face in the growing marketplace for K-12 education. 

Submissions should address some or all of the following: 

 Issues and challenges related to educating students in a landscape of school choice. 

 Impact of school choice polices, practices, and strategies on the delivery of government-supported education. 

 Effects of school choice policies, practices and strategies on teaching and teacher quality. 

 Analysis of school choice policies and their impact on important educational issues such as educational finance, social cohesion, and equity and access.
