While Sweden is often viewed as a benchmark for equality within
education, this book examines this assumption in greater depth. The
author argues that Sweden's education system - even prior to the
global spread of neoliberalism in education, meta-policies and
privatization - was never particularly equal. Instead, what became
apparent was a system that offered advantages to the upper social
classes under a sheen of meritocracy and tolerable inequalities.
Combining ethnographic and meta-ethnographic methodologies and
analyses, the author examines the phenomenon of structural
injustice in the Swedish education system both vertically and
diachronically across a period of intensive transformation and
reform. This revealing volume offers a mode of engagement that will
be of value and interest to researchers and students of injustices
within education, as well as policy makers and practitioners.
