| Abstract: | The article emphasizes the relevance of comparative education for education research under the conditions of globalization and technical progress of data collecting and processing, and it draws attention to the task of further development of the methodology of comparing. Turning attention to the semiotic character of society and culture I propose to model them as "texts". Since comparing different societies and their subsystems is nothing else than "border crossing", we find analogy in the process of translating, and the text-model could help to contribute to an increasingly precise language of description and analysis in comparative education. |
