Drawing on empirical findings from the European Research Council funded project ?International Organisations and the Rise of a Global Metrological Field? (METRO, 2017-2022), Education, Quantification and Utopia focuses on the ways that metrological realism has constructed a well-supported epistemic infrastructure, built on relationships and practices that go beyond the mere objectivity and reliability of numerical evidence. The book?s chapters outline how the production of new forms of education expertise have led to ideational and institutional interdependencies, and ultimately the making of an intricate, fragmented and opaque knowledge and governance web. Sotiria Grek is Professor of European and Global Education Governance at the School of Social and Political Science, University of Edinburgh. She works on education policy, transnational policy learning, and the politics of quantification, knowledge, and governance. She is the Principal Investigator of the European Research Council funded project ?International Organisations and the Rise of a Global Metrological Field? (METRO). She has recently co-authored ?Governing the Sustainable Development Goals: Quantification in Global Public Policy? (Springer 2022) and co-edited World Yearbook of Education 2021: Accountability and Datafication in Education (Routledge 2020). 410 0$aPalgrave Studies in Science, Knowledge and Policy,$x2947-5813 606 $aSocial policy 606 $aScience$xSocial aspects 606 $aAnthropology 606 $aSociology 606 $aSocial Policy 606 $aScience and Technology Studies 606 $aAnthropology 606 $aSociology 615 0$aSocial policy. 615 0$aScience$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aAnthropology. 615 0$aSociology. 615 14$aSocial Policy. 615 24$aScience and Technology Studies. 615 24$aAnthropology. 615 24$aSociology. 676 $a361.61 700 $aGrek$b Sotiria$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01255975 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910767592603321 996 $aThe New Production of Expert Knowledge$94240445 997 $aUNINA
