Analysis of the normative framework of education in the global context

Abstract

The purpose of this research was to analyze the normative framework of education in the global, international, and national context of Colombia. It was theoretically based on the postulates of experts in the educational area, documents, and legal foundations that allowed contrasting different conceptions on the subject in question. The study was developed under the exploratory qualitative paradigm, based on a documentary review. Among the most significant results, it was revealed that the documents generated in international events provide follow-up and response to the educational problem; likewise, the normative framework facilitates the construction of public policies conceived as legal justification guaranteeing the right to education for all citizens, as a constitutional duty on which depends the realization of the individual, collective and cultural life project in society, thus providing value to the intangible products of knowledge and sustainable development.

Keywords: normative framework; globalization; knowledge society; public policies; sustainable development.
