Virtual Networks, Support Stockings and Community: On-line publication- A new context of meaning for comparative education?

O'Dowd, Mina LU (2006) In Research in Comparative and International Education 1(1). p.31-39
Abstract
This article addrsses the advant of this online only publication, the very context in which it is being made available. Central to this article is Delanty's work on communicative communities. It is argued that it is particularly appropriate to view comparative and international education in this manner. Online publication offers comparative and international education a new context of meaning. Seen in this context, comparative and international education can be reformulated as one of the communicative communities that are more about communication than place, more about belonging than boundaries, more about the production of meaning than about the reproduction of meaning.
