“…The comparative texts on educational systems, especially in Economic sciences and Sociology, as well as in well-known large International studies and a number of comparativists studies dealing with education, are often accompanied by data interpretation in the context of its historical, economic and social development. Thus, J. Beredey considered interpretation as one of the main methods of research in Comparative Education (Bereday, 1967). We can also found the mention of this method in a number of contemporary books (Ivanova, 2012;Marchall, 2014;Matheson, 2015;Phillips & Schweisfurth, 2014).…”

The purpose of the article is to consider the method of interpretation as one of the ways to increase the scientific level of Comparative Education. The authors of the article consider, discuss and analyze the reasons for the practical lack of interpretation method in this field of knowledge. They raise questions on the elimination of problems that stand in the way of using the method in Comparative Education. They are engaged in polemics on this issue, they turn to the opinion of different scientists who study the factors of objective/ subjective interpretation of scientific texts and offer different approaches to interpretation. The problem of interpretation in this article is analyzed in science generally, it is traced historically. The authors of the article pay particular attention to consider the theory, strategies, principles and functions of interpretation in Humanities and Social science. The authors of the article turn to the books of philosophers, methodologists, philologists, sociologists, political scientists, geographers, psychologists and comparativists in search for understanding the meaning of the term «interpretation». The article reveals different understandings of the term. The authors of the article investigate the reasons for the appeal of scientists in different fields of knowledge to the method of interpretation. They consider the significance of this method in different studies. The authors of the article raise the question of place and role of this method in Comparative Education. A special place in the article is given to the consideration of the ethical aspect of interpretation in pedagogical texts.

“…Y en tercer lugar, la educación comparada se ha ocupado de desarrollar y definir toda una serie de metodologías y vocabularios para realizar comparaciones científicas válidas entre sistemas educativos (Beech, 2006;Schriewer, 2012;Steiner-Khamsi, 2002). Pensemos, si no, en los conceptos de yuxtaposición, tertium comparationis, descontextualización, préstamo, préstamo tácito y transferencia, sin mencionar toda la gama de herramientas cuantitativas y estadísticas reunidas para medir y consagrar las cifras que se obtienen (Bereday, 1967). Tal como sostienen Cardoso y Steiner-Khamsi «el uso de indicadores hace que los sistemas educativos sean factibles de ser comparados más allá de las diferencias que tengan» (2017, p. 401).…”

El presente artículo parte de la idea de que la educación contemporánea está caracterizada por la presencia de una cultura evaluativa global. Dicha cultura refleja el hecho de que los resultados y los estándares del aprendizaje de los estudiantes son el foco de atención de quienes elaboran las políticas públicas en todo el mundo. Así, la cultura evaluativa global tiene un papel preponderante tanto en las políticas de educación como en las condiciones en las que se desarrollan las prácticas educativas en los diferentes contextos nacionales. El objetivo de este artículo es proporcionar una descripción breve y de calidad de los precursores, antecedentes y condiciones que alentaron y facilitaron el surgimiento de la cultura evaluativa global que observamos en nuestros días. El artículo se estructura a partir de dos etapas cronológicas. La primera abarca la confluencia de la educación comparada con la aparición de la psicología aplicada y las estructuras organizacionales transnacionales que comenzaron a formarse en el contexto previo a la Segunda Guerra Mundial. La segunda etapa comprende el surgimiento de fundaciones y organizaciones dedicadas a la cultura evaluativa global luego de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, período en el que se evidenció una especial preocupación por las comparaciones y mediciones en el ámbito de la educación. Se postula en este artículo que estos desarrollos, que se produjeron a partir de un marco establecido principalmente durante los años de entreguerras, se fusionaron con posterioridad en una trayectoria promovida por las políticas durante la Guerra Fría, y se convirtieron luego en una tendencia predominante a partir de la década de 1990.
