Abstract:
Educational policies as a field of study were slow to develop, initially being identified with state policy concerning the national education system—a key pillar of state formation. As a result, they were considered a matter of national rather than scientific interest. This chapter aims to describe and examine how, through the actions of major international organizations, the design and implementation of education policies has emerged as an area of focus at the international level. These developments have progressively influenced national educational policies, transforming them into a scientific field. At the same time, both the discourse on lifelong learning and the development of European educational policies not only institutionalize and complicate the processes of educational policy-making at the supranational level, but also shift the focus of interest from national education systems to international policies concerning development and employment.
