Abstract: This edited volume on education in the Arab World sets out by questioning the need for yet another book on education in the region, despite the general consensus that more indigenous research on education within the region is essential. The volume highlights many critical education challenges as well as opportunities of and for education in the Middle East North Africa (MENA) region. The book refers to the countries in question as ‘limited access orders’, highlighting the lack of participation in the process of education planning and delivery. It consists of eleven chapters and is divided into two parts, the first on case studies and the second on comparative perspectives. [excerpt]
