Savage, and Bob Lingard.  \nAbstract: This paper takes the landmark review into the federal funding of schools in Australia, known as the Gonski Review (2011), as an illustrative case to demonstrate the scalar practices involved in policy production and enactment. Its primary argument is that, while its core recommendation was a needs-based funding model for the federal government funding of schools, the Gonski Review also articulates an aspiration for the translation of this funding model into a comprehensively national approach. This is done, I argue, through important practices of scalar imagining and reasoning (Papanastasiou, 2017b) . However, these national aspirations sit uneasily with the realities of schooling and school funding in the Australian federation, which includes constitutional arrangements, legislation, and policy principles that distribute responsibility for funding across multiple spaces of governance. Drawing on documentary evidence, I argue that scalar tensions are produced between these national aspirations and the realpolitik of Australian federalism. By challenging “the national” as a coherent and predetermined “scale,” these findings reinforce the  \nimportance of attending to the mediating forces of subnational governments, as well as global policy influences, when thinking about policy mobilities in federations.  \nKeywords: scalecraft; policy mobilities; Gonski; school funding; federations  \nImaginando la financiación “nacional” en la federación australiana: La Revisión Gonski y Schooling Resource Standard  \nResumen: Este documento toma la histórica revisión de la financiación federal de las escuelas en Australia conocida como la Revisión Gonski (2011) como un caso ilustrativo para demostrar las prácticas escalares involucradas en la producción y promulgación de políticas. Su argumento principal es que, si bien su recomendación central era un modelo de financiación basado en las necesidades para la financiación de las escuelas por parte del gobierno federal, Revisión Gonski también articula una aspiración para la traducción de este modelo de financiación en un enfoque nacional integral. Esto se hace, sostengo, a través de importantes prácticas de imaginación y razonamiento escalar (Papanastasiou, 2017b) . Sin embargo, estas aspiraciones “nacionales” no encajan bien con las realidades de la educación y la financiación escolar en la federación australiana, que incluye disposiciones constitucionales, legislación y principios políticos que distribuyen laresponsabilidad de la financiación en múltiples espacios de gobierno. Basándome en evidencia documental, argumento que se producen tensiones escalares entre estas aspiraciones nacionales y la realpolitik del federalismo australiano. Al cuestionar “lo nacional” como una “escala” coherente y predeterminada, estos hallazgos refuerzan la importancia de prestar atención a las fuerzas mediadoras de los gobiernos subnacionales, así como a las influencias políticas globales, al pensar en movilidades de políticas en las federaciones.  \nPalabras clave: scalecraft; movilidades políticas; Gonski; financiación","cbCaisaaz1EOhQ4Y","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisaaz1EOhQ4Y","pdf",549580,23,"English","# Imagining “National” Funding in the Australian Federation\n## The Gonski Review and the Schooling Resource Standard\n## Scalar practices, policy production, and enactment\n## Tensions between national aspirations and federal realities","[{\"question\":\"What case does the paper use to study federal school funding policy?\",\"answer\":\"The paper uses the Gonski Review (2011) as an illustrative case for examining policy production and enactment.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the paper explain the creation of “national” aspirations?\",\"answer\":\"It argues that “national” aspirations are articulated through practices of scalar imagining and reasoning that aim to translate a needs-based funding model into a comprehensively national approach.\"},{\"question\":\"Why do the paper’s findings describe “national” aspirations as difficult to align with Australian federalism?\",\"answer\":\"Because schooling and school funding are governed through constitutional arrangements, legislation, and principles that allocate funding responsibility across multiple governance spaces.\"}]","Global Policy Mobilities in Federal Education Systems - Special Issue | PDF",1792094200,58]
