摘要

Advanced industrialized countries share an "achievement gap" between students from low-income and high-wealth school districts, despite the different structures of their governments. The USA and France have nationally attempted to restructure their school systems in order to close the gap, but in different directions. Both the perceived "expansionsist" policies of the USA and the "retrenchment" efforts of France have faced challenges that require a reevaluation of their top-down approach to school reform. This dissertation took a cultural-institutionalist approach, one that considers the strength of institutions and historical and cultural perspectives of ground-level implementers as critical to implementation, to examine the relationship between national planning and education in two urban school districts, Port City, USA and Montvelier, France during the 2002-2003 and 2003-2004 school years respectively. Through interviews with teachers and administrators and observations of classrooms in both settings, the dissertation measured whether educational decision-making in the school districts had evolved toward national planning goals. Results indicated that Port City had made significant strides towards following a national model, except in the amount of content delivered and the teaching methods employed. This change was due to the strong institutional framework established by the state of New Jersey, interest group support and the history of education policymaking in the USA. Montvelier, by contrast, showed little or no change towards a decentralized model of education for two primary reasons. First, reforms were split into two types, one broad governmental reform for all policy areas, not just education, and one targeted education policy for low-income students with little impact on other students. Second, ZEP/REPS, the targeted policy, did not mandate restructuring of French education. The dissertation suggests that a "backward mapping" policy analysis approach would help each country further achieve its educational planning goals.
