Building on a detailed analysis of the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma, a senior secondary school certificate offered in over 150 countries, Quentin Maire argues that the advent of new private credentials can be understood as a phenomenon of credential stratification in a context of intensified academic competition. Using original data on high school credentials in Australia and internationally, the author makes a strong case for certificates to be studied relationally, by locating them in the credentialing structures in which they are inserted. He systematically applies the comparative method to explain the role of the curriculum, family resources, school segregation and higher education selection in creating a credential hierarchy. His robust combination of theoretical construction and detailed empirical work allows him to offer new insights into social inequality in education systems, credential theory and the IB Diploma. 001439864 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed October 5, 2021). 001439864 650_0 $$aInternational baccalaureate. 001439864 650_0 $$aEducational equalization. 001439864 650_0 $$aEducational sociology. 001439864 650_6 $$aBaccalauréat international. 001439864 650_6 $$aDémocratisation de l'enseignement. 001439864 650_6 $$aSociologie de l'éducation. 001439864 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001439864 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z3030801683$$z9783030801687$$w(OCoLC)1255173850 001439864 830_0 $$aInternational study of city youth education ;$$vvolume 4. 001439864 852__ $$bebk 001439864 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-80169-4$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001439864 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1439864$$pGLOBAL_SET 001439864 980__ $$aBIB 001439864 980__ $$aEBOOK 001439864 982__ $$aEbook 001439864 983__ $$aOnline 001439864 994__ $$a92$$bISE
