Líneas divisorias en la crianza, enseñanza y cuidado de la primera infancia
A pesar de las persistentes críticas a la división entre educación y cuidado, según la investigación, las políticas y prácticas, continúan trazándose líneas divisorias entre la crianza, enseñanza y cuidado (cec) de la primera infancia (pi). Estos bordes se enfrentan con perspectivas que van más allá de la sectorialización del campo y que tienden hacia enfoques holísticos e integrales. Desde una perspectiva sistémica, en el presente artículo se ex…
Nordic approaches to evaluation and assessment in early childhood education and care
This paper presents and discusses the findings of a collaborative investigation into Nordic approaches to evaluation and assessment in early childhood education and care. The project explored values and principles that underpin and guide evaluation in ECEC systems and practices in five Nordic countries: Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden.

Early childhood education and care in South America — a new curricular wave
In recent decades, a global consensus has emerged that acknowledges that Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) requires systemic, cross-sectoral approaches. In this context, integrated early childhood approaches are flourishing in South America. Although these policies have been successful in many aspects, ECEC provision in the region continues to be fragmented. In this exploratory article, we analyse the role of ECEC curricula in the concept…
Opening access to privilege
The influence of the International Baccalaureate (IB) has grown impressively on a global scale. In Latin America, the IB has been mainly introduced in private schools that cater for the most affluent sectors of society and, consequently, has been mostly interpreted as contributing to processes of social reproduction and the widening of inequalities However, since the mid-2000s the IB has been promoted in state schools in countries such as Ecuador…
Comparative studies of early childhood education and care
With early childhood inhabiting a firm position on policy agendas, an emerging global consensus acknowledges the need for research into early childhood education and care (ECEC) systems. However, standardised approaches to comparison dominate the field. These studies tend to be grounded in methodological nationalism, assuming nation states as the natural and necessary unit to study social phenomena. I argue the national unit is not sufficient to …
Pisa desde la cuna? El Estudio Internacional de Aprendizaje Temprano e implicancias para América Latina
En 2015 la Organización para la Cooperación y el Desarrollo Económico (OCDE) se embarcó una nueva iniciativa orientada a la primera infancia. El Estudio Internacional de Aprendizaje Temprano y Bienestar Infantil (IELS), también denominado PISA preescolar, es una nueva prueba internacional estandarizada para la educación temprana. Este trabajo sistematiza críticamente la emergencia y el desarrollo de la iniciativa IELS; examina las principales crí…
What does it mean to be an early childhood educator? Negotiating professionalism during practicum placements in Buenos Aires (Argentina)
Professionalism is not defined a priori, but rather within a professional community, in the immediate contexts where professionals interact. It is a situated phenomenon that cannot be accounted for without the voices of members of the professional community. In this article, I discuss professionalism through the perspectives of early childhood (EC) teacher educators during practicum placements. Placements are a microcosm that offers a forum for d…
