This book reviews the state of education in Myanmar over the past decade and a half as the country is undergoing profound albeit incomplete transformation. Set within the context of Myanmar's peace process and the wider reforms since 2012, Marie Lall's analysis of education policy and practice serves as a case study on how the reform programme has evolved. Drawing on over 15 years of field research carried out across Myanmar, the book offers a cohesive inquiry into government and non-government education sectors, the reform process, and how the transition has played out across schools, universities and wider society. It casts scrutiny on changes in basic education, the alternative monastic education, higher education and teacher education, and engages with issues of ethnic education and the debate on the role of language and the local curriculum as part of the peace process. In so doing, it gives voice to those most affected by the changing landscape of Myanmar's education and wider reform process: the students and parents of all ethnic backgrounds, teachers, teacher trainees and university staff that are rarely heard. Marie Lall argues that, despite a commitment to greater equality and equity expressed in the Ministry of Education's policy documents, Myanmar has missed a historic opportunity to make use of education reform to engage with deep-seated social injustices. Inequalities persist in the long-term outcomes for poorer sections of society and between the majority Bamars and ethnic nationality communities. This is the portrait of a country constrained by internal tensions and competing international priorities that serve to divert the professed course towards social justice.

The straitjacket of centralized control and coercive approaches to the problems that public education is facing is not the solution, but actually is part of the problem. And where achievement is lower than desired this book brings attention to the root cause - lack of student preparation so that more resources can be put into catching these kids up, rather than into more tests, more curriculum development, and more administrative staff needed to comply with all of this complexity and growing regulations.

L'éducation constitue un instrument puissant au service de la construction d'une nouvelle Russie. Elle peut aider les citoyens à relever les défis liés à la transition vers la démocratie, contribuer à former une main-d'oeuvre ayant les qualités et les compétences requises par le nouveau contexte socio-économique, et permettre de concilier objectifs nationaux et intérêts régionaux. Le défi posé au système éducatif est d'autant plus grand que de nombreux autres systèmes économiques et sociaux sont également dans une phase de transition et de réforme en Fédération de Russie. Dans le contexte actuel, caractérisé par des conditions changeantes et incertaines et de sérieuses contraintes financières, les politiques éducatives doivent s'efforcer de promouvoir et d'accompagner l'adaptation et le réaménagement des programmes, de renforcer les atouts manifestes du système actuel et d'encourager l'instauration de partenariats nouveaux et efficaces aux niveaux national, régional et local. Ce rapport décrit les tendances les plus récentes de la politique d'éducation de la Fédération de Russie et présente une analyse des réformes en cours. Tout en approuvant l'orientation générale de la politique actuelle, il attire l'attention sur certains problèmes, ouvre de nouveaux horizons et propose des moyens de consolider les réformes engagées. Il contient des recommandations portant sur les objectifs de l'éducation, l'accès universel et l'égalité des chances, les programmes et l'évaluation, les enseignants et leur formation, la réforme de l'enseignement technique et professionnel dans une économie en mutation, et enfin la gestion, le financement et le rôle des pouvoirs publics.
