This book takes a closer look at the relation between current issues and trends in higher education and scientific research in the Arab World and in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states of Qatar and United Arab Emirates (UAE). This thoroughly researched text traces the development of higher education in the GCC area as it continues to be positioned in an intersection of international and local factors. The text further articulates the pivotal political and cultural influences that act as real and perceived barriers towards the advancement of key fields. The chapters analyze the current policy trends, structures, and coping alternatives in addressing higher education challenges, whilst also providing comparative first-hand texts with the other Arab states in the region. By drawing focus on the GCC area, the text identifies the crucial factors that hamper learning and research performance. The book serves as an invaluable discussion on the implications for policy makers and HEIs in relation to the eponymous regions and other Arab states in the GCC area.Enhancing understanding of the scope, scale, and complexity of higher education and scientific research in the GCC area, the book will be of interest to academics, researchers, and post-graduate students in the fields of educational policy, comparative and international education and higher education.

This volume explores how educational leadership and administration (ELA) is constructed in the Middle East and North African region (MENA), and charts the development of ELA as a discipline.Against the backdrop of rapid growth and interest in the educational restructuring, educational reforms, policy and leadership landscape of the region, chapters investigate issues concerned with the production and utilization of knowledge in the field, and analyse the future of ELA in relation to the educational policies and practices in MENA countries. Featuring a broad range of geographically dispersed specialist contributors involved in leadership, policy, and administration, the volume ultimately sheds light on this little-researched area of study to demystify common tropes and misunderstandings surrounding ELA in the MENA region.This book will be of use to scholars, researchers, and postgraduate students involved with international and comparative education, higher education management, and education policy and politics more broadly.

This timely, international volume presents case studies on the current landscape of educational policy and reform across the diverse and dynamic Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. It reflects a broad spectrum of political, socio-economic, cultural, and governance contexts, shedding light on both shared trends and region-specific divergences. MENA region contributors provide insights on how educational leaders and administrators address sociopolitical challenges while upholding a commitment to principles of social justice, equity, and political inclusion. The chapters explore the influence of recent political upheavals on local educational leadership and governance, presenting lessons learned in relation to geographic and culturally specific policymaking, reform strategies, and systemic transformation. This book also examines how political and socio-economic conditions affect educational reforms at national and subnational levels, recognizing how school leaders, parents, communities, and policymakers collectively shape innovation and meaningful change initiatives. This book will be of particular interest to academics, postgraduate students, and researchers in the fields of educational leadership, administration, policy, and reform. It will also serve as a valuable resource for policymakers and education professionals engaged in leading and managing change in complex educational environments.

This important volume focuses on the politics of education reform and the process involved with designing and implementing such reforms in the Gulf region, providing a novel framework for the little-researched K–12 education context in the region. Chapters demonstrate the involvement, influence and motivation of the ruling establishment in reforming the educational system, and share the experiences of key politicians and policymakers through discussion of the challenges faced in reforming education and perceived outcomes in the region. Using Kuwait as example of teacher policy reform struggle, the chapters then provide a comparative analysis in relation to Qatar and Bahrain to demonstrate regional difference and posit a framework for Arab Gulf states to improve processes and implementation of K–12 educational reforms. Employing political theories to understand education reforms in the Arab Gulf states region from a political perspective, chapters use policy document analysis, international reports, and interviews with policymakers, educators, and faculty to explore solutions and underpin the framework presented. Contributing much-needed discussion of education reform in the Gulf region from a political perspective, the book will be of use to scholars, researchers and postgraduate students in the fields of education policy and politics, international and comparative education, and educational change and school reform more broadly. Those with specific interest in how educational policy unfolds in regions that lack robust democratic history will also benefit.
