About this product
Product Information
Education systems and textbooks in selected countries of the Middle East are increasingly the subject of debate. This volume presents and analyzes the major trends as well as the scope and the limits of education reform initiatives undertaken in recent years. In curricula and teaching materials, representations of the "Self" and the "Other" offer insights into the contemporary dynamics of identity politics. By building on a network of scholars working in various countries in the Middle East itself, this book aims to contribute to the evolution of a field of comparative education studies in this region.

I purchased a book from this seller, shortly afterwards I realized that I had already purchased that book, I tried to cancel the order but wasn't able too, I contacted the seller and asked if they would cancel it, they sent a message back saying they were unable too. I noticed on my Ebay app that the book wasn't even shipped until two days after my purchase, they let me know I could return the item, when I tried to do a return, I got a message telling me that the item could not be returned.
