Abstract: In the present work, we fill a gap in the writing on the
decentralization of educational governance by periodizing and comparing
trends that have fallen under this label in both the United States and
developing countries in the post-WWII period (1945-present). The findings
are informed by a review of 127 decentralization-related studies from seven
leading, peer-reviewed journals in comparative and international education,
in addition to the Journal of Education Policy, Journal of Educational
Administration, and Harvard Education Review. We combine this review with
works that address larger political and economic shifts. One key finding is
that the application of community-level decentralization in developing
countries has not been as widespread as global rhetoric during the 1990s and
2000s would imply. A second key finding is that there has been a relatively
recent shift away from decentralization towards other forms of
accountability-based reforms in both the United States and developing
countries.
Keywords: Decentralization, School-Based Management, Education Governance,
