Developing and advancing education systems constitutes a big recurring task for governments and societies around the world. Education is often caught in crossfire of those who attribute the rise of modernity and progress to it and those who blame it for reproducing persistent social inequalities. The course examines the relationship between education and
society from comparative educational and sociological perspectives, and explores the ways through which (national) education systems have been evolving in recent history. More specifically, the course dissects and challenges the assumptions that two main Western educational traditions, namely Continental/Nordic Europe Bildung based Didaktik and Anglo America n curriculum tradition, and critical, reproduction, and neo institutional sociological theories are built upon and how they shaped and continue to shape schooling in 21 st century. The focus will also be on how these theoretical perspectives affect social change at individual and collective level. Central t hemes are Bildung, key competences, and educational transformation. The goal of the course is to enable students develop advanced understanding and criticality about why we have the education systems we have and what implications that has for present and future of education and societies locally and globally.
