The book analyzes the transformation of European Education Policy from 1973 to 2020, from a predominantly national concern to a supranational policy framework driven by an economic discourse concerning productivity and employability. It shows that the idea of the "Europe of Knowledge" did not originate in the Lisbon Strategy of 2000 but was the result of a gradual development that started in the mid-1980s.

This comprehensive book delves into the intricate evolution of European Education Policy from 1973 to 2020, providing a unique perspective on the profound shifts in European education. Through its analysis, it unveils the transition from a predominantly national concern to a supranational policy framework, driven by an economic discourse focused on productivity and employability. The book reveals that the concept of the "Europe of Knowledge" did not emerge solely from the Lisbon Strategy of 2000 but rather evolved gradually over the years, beginning in the mid-1980s. This transformative journey was initiated by the establishment of a specific problem definition of education as a means to address Europe's lack of competitiveness. This definition was meticulously constructed by the European Commission and the European business community, gradually shaping the policy landscape.

By highlighting significant and previously unexplored questions, such as the role of European transnational businesses in education and the influence of the "problem entrepreneur" in shaping policy issues, this book offers a comprehensive and insightful perspective on European Education Policy. It is a valuable resource for students of European Politics, Education Policy, and Public Policy, as it sheds light on the complex dynamics and developments that have shaped the European education landscape over the past four decades.
