Reforming Education In Pakistan – Tracing Global Links, Sajid Ali, Malik S. A. Tahir
Institute for Educational Development, Karachi
This paper is about tracing global links in national education reforms in Pakistan. The paper tries to describe globalization and its general effects on national policies.
