Early childhood education, care and development programs have spread across the globe since 2000.  These programs dedicated to school-readiness and the development of healthy brains are a powerful global assemblage that connects education enterprise, brain science, and community-led development.  Based on fieldwork in Indonesia, Jan Newberry, considers these “developments” in terms of childhood studies and global political economy to argue for the continuing relevance of social reproduction.
