The growing economic competition among the world's industrialized and developing nations has spurred comparisons and examinations of national school systems. An important aspect of any school system is school and classroom management, which is an indicator of the ultimate goals that a nation has for its future workers. In this volume, international scholars examine the daily life of elementary school classrooms in six nations with complex economies, an international presence, and salient minority and immigrant populations. These original essays analyze contemporary classroom management practices and policies, as well as their historical and theoretical frameworks.
