Abstract
It drew on the philosophy of Plato (in The Republic) and others and on Appadurais (2006) terms scapes and flows and on Lauder at el. (2006) for analysis of individualisation. I argue that globalisation and individualisation are interacting to increase mobility of products and of producers which affect the way we educate. The report concludes by suggesting that connection between globalisation, individualisation can be seen as interacting scapes and flowswith irregular shapes, together with the tensions that they raise.
