Jules Loyola University Chicago The Raison d’être of Small States Research Not so long ago, across many disciplines, the study of small states was seen as a futile project since “small states have been rendered synonymous to chronically vulnerable and problematic territories for which aid, assistance and especially favourable deals are legitimate” (Baldacchino, 2012, p. 237). Yet within the past eighteen months we have seen a popular resurgence of educational research on small states in comparative and international education (CIE) with at least two publications in 2011 (Education in Small States: Policies and Priorities by Michael Crossley, Mark Bray and Steve Packer, and Tertiary Education in Small States: Planning in the Context of Globalization edited by Michaela Martin and Mark Bray) and one in 2010 (Education in Small States: Global Imperatives, Regional Initiatives and Local Dilemmas edited by Peter Mayo).	cache/cice-11479.pdf	txt/cice-11479.txt
