Abstract | The radically and rapidly changing societal context has placed education at the crossroads, necessitating a re-thinking of education. At the same time, urgent challenges confront humanity, such as the environmental crisis and the creation of social capital (to keep together an increasing diverse society)--to mention but two. In all these education is a key variable, and--rightly so--the vehicle selected by humanity to meet the new future. This paper surveys these global societal contextual factors in the twenty-first century, and the implications thereof for education. Comparative and International Education is put forward as the best available means to deal with the challenge of creating a system of education geared for the imperatives of the new age.
