Résumé

The last decade has been characterized in many countries by large-scale reforms of public educational systems. (We do not use the term 'reform' as reflecting a judgment about the desirability of these changes, but only to reflect the language that the governments introducing these changes use.) In this paper we look at the origins of reform programs in four countries. Our interest is in the origins of and justifications for these reforms, and in particular in the role of ideology in the initiation and direction of particular reform programs.
