QUALITY OF EDUCATION IN THE EUROPEAN UNION STRATEGIC DOCUMENTS: A CRITICAL ANALYSIS
Journal Title: Continuing Professional Education: Theory and Practice - Year 2020, Vol 1, Issue 62
Abstract
The internationalization of the market coincided with the opening of state borders for the benefit of free movement of capital, goods, labor, services and information. With the dominance of the ideological realm of economic pragmatism, educational discourse is overwhelmed and dominated by conceptual loans from the business world: choice, competition, efficiency, speech, management, productivity, consumer. Thus, a successful criterion of international economic competition emerges as a key quality criterion. The Communication from the Commission of the European Communities (2008) on an updated strategic framework for European cooperation in education and training raises the need for upgrading the skills of the population and the need to implement skills development policies that better respond to current and future needs of the labor market. However, the entrepreneurial spirit promoted at all levels of education and training rather establishes a more modern surveillance mechanism by establishing a cultural arbitrary accord with the market economy (Foucault, 2005). Consequently, it is necessary to find an alternative way of teaching that welcomes the questioning and manifestation of both the genetic cause and the prospects behind the formal education policy.
