Abstract

This Briefing examines the development and effects of international comparative testing in the field of education governance in Europe. It uses the examples of international comparative studies of adult literacy to cast light on the nature and direction of policy learning between international organisations, to demonstrate how policy makers learn and to illustrate how international organisations create the necessary consensus and evidence to justify education reform.
