Comparative education emerged as a distinct field in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, driven by the need to understand educational systems across different cultures and nations. Early scholars, such as Marc-Antoine Jullien, sought to analyze and compare educational practices to improve their own systems. The field gained prominence after World War II, as globalization and international cooperation highlighted the importance of understanding diverse educational approaches. Today, comparative education encompasses a wide range of methodologies and perspectives, focusing on issues like policy development, equity, and cultural context in education.
Comparative Education Review was created in 1957.
Current Issues in Comparative Education was created in 1997.
