Between Global and Local: Culture and Education

Abstract

Globalization affects cultures and education systems in every country. It is impossible to counteract but it is possible, first, to learn to compete with other countries, and second, to learn to adapt to it while retaining major nation’s cultural identity traits. This study presents a comparative analysis of national education system evaluation based on the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) together with Hofstede’s cultural dimensions. It demonstrates a close relationship between education quality and nation’s cultural characteristics.
