Rethinking Education in Light of Global Challenges discusses
challenges to education in Scandinavian welfare states due to
global trends like migration, neoliberal strategies, and the
exploitation of nature. This anthology comprises case studies,
theoretical articles, and reflective studies, grouped under the
headings of Culture, Society, and the Anthropocene. This book
directly addresses three interrelated global events and their
implications for education as seen from Scandinavian perspectives:
migration flows, increased cultural diversity, and
(post)nationalism; the erosion of the welfare state and the global
rise of neoliberalism; and the Anthropocene and environmental
challenges arising in the wake of the global exploitation of
natural ecosystems. In case studies, theoretical articles, and
reflective studies, researchers from Nordic countries explore how
education, education policy, and educational thinking in these
countries are affected by these global trends, bringing to the fore
the different roles education can play in addressing the various
issues and different ways of reimagining education. This
authoritative volume will be of great interest to researchers,
academics, and students in the fields of sociology of education,
migration and education, environmental education, and educational
politics.
