Of the three areas covered in this book, the first is a rich one near Beijing; the second is in the northwest in Shanxi on the Loess plateau; and the third is in Sichuan on the high plateau leading to Tibet. Central issues include the impact of large-scale demographic change and migration, with increasing numbers of left-behind children in sending areas, and large increases in the numbers of inbound migrants in receiving areas; dramatic increases in the boarding of children in rural areas; changing patterns of teacher deployment; recentralization of responsibilities for school financing; and growing concerns regarding horizontal and vertical inequalities in both access and participation.New Frontiers of Educational Research,2195-3473International education Comparative educationEducational policyEducation and stateInternational and Comparative Educationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O13000Educational Policy and Politicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O19000International education .Comparative education.Educational policy.Education and state.International and Comparative Education.Educational Policy and Politics.370.951Wang Luauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut904559Lewin Keithauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910254975603321Two Decades of Basic Education in Rural China2527158UNINA
