What is World Yearbook of Education 2006 : Education, Research and Policy: Steering the Knowledge-Based Economy about?

What consequences does this increased steering have for research in education? How do transnational agencies make their influence felt on educational research? How do national systems and traditions of educational research - and relations with policy - respond to these new pressures?
