Bringing together an impressive array of esteemed and emerging academics, the Research Handbook on Adult Education Policy addresses how adult learning and education policies are made, and the theories and methodologies which can be mobilised to study its developments.Adopting a multidisciplinary approach, researchers from both the Global South and North outline theoretical frameworks and methodologies for studying adult education policy, exploring long-standing issues and recent societal trends that affect its framing. This Research Handbook examines and explains supranational, international and national levels of governance and policy in adult education and considers the contributions of adult education policies to continuing societal development. Looking ahead, contributing authors make vital recommendations for future avenues of research in this continually evolving field, in particular emphasising the need to separate adult education policy from economic growth.This Handbook is an excellent resource for researchers, academics and students in adult education, sociology and social policy and politics and public policy. Emphasising the critical importance of adult learning and education, it also benefits adult education practitioners, policymakers and adult learning advocacy organisations at the national and international level.
