Why are school systems structured differently across countries? The
Politics of Comprehensive School Reform examines this question
through an in-depth analysis of school politics in Germany and
Norway during the post-war period of educational expansion. Using a
Rokkanian theoretical framework, the book argues that school
politics can only be understood in light of the cleavages, or
political divides, that shape actors' interests, ideologies, and
inclinations for who they want to cooperate with - or not. The book
analyzes cross-cutting cleavages connected to religion, geography,
language, anticommunism, and gender, and demonstrates how Norwegian
social democrats and German Christian democrats built successful
coalitions by mobilizing support from different social groups.
Extensively researched and expansively applicable, this book
contributes to the interdisciplinary literature on the politics of
education, and to the field of comparative welfare and education
regime research. This book is also available Open Access on
Cambridge Core.
