THE CER JOURNAL

The Comparative Education Review is the flagship journal of CIES. It investigates education throughout the world in the context of the social, economic, and political forces that shape educational practice and policy. The journal was founded in 1957 to advance knowledge and teaching in comparative education studies. Since then, the Review has established itself as the most reliable source for the analysis of the place of education in countries throughout the world and is the leading journal for the study of comparative and international education. 

The journal is published by the University of Chicago Press. There are four issues per year.
