Abstract
The twentieth-century nation state has had its say on how we must educate, measure, and explain children and schooling. For better and for worse, the twentieth-century state made promises of progress, development, democracy, education, and, for every new generation, enough equality to justify a story about a level playing field for school children. Almost all nation states make these promises and keep track of just how much they have delivered. To take a seat among the great nations of the world, every country has had to make an accounting of itself: of its populations, its economies, its inequalities, and its possibilities. Every state has had to produce data and reports on its markets, its systems of health care and education, and its laws and promises of justice.
