It examines the strengths and weaknesses of different aspects of educational provision in political jurisdictions having a very small population - populations which encounter specific challenges, threats and opportunities. This book presents a balance in regional representation - covering the South Pacific, the Caribbean, Africa, Europe and the Mediterranean. The contributions pay particular attention to basic education, higher education, entrepreneurship training, post-primary education and the impact of globalization on educational restructuring and aid delivery in specific small state regions.
