Educational Crisis and Reform Perspectives from South Asia Edited by ABBAS RASHID and IRFAN MUZAFFAR Reforming education is not just a technical issue. In order for education reforms to gain momentum, the media, general public, and members of the policy making community need to be more informed about the various dimensions of the educational challenge faced by South Asian societies. The book is a modest attempt to respond to this need. The contributions in this volume are research-based and aim at providing a deeper understanding of both the dimensions of the crises as well as responses to them. The book will contribute immensely to informed debate on critical issues relating to education reform in South Asia. Abbas Rashid has taught at the Academy for Administrative Training (later the Civil Services Academy) and served in key editorial positions in some of Pakistan’s major newspapers. Irfan Muzaffar’s work includes teacher education, education research, and education policy analysis, program design, and evaluation.
