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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dennis Beach\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3319954040\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783319954042\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/25\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 346\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.27lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.81d","brand":"Dennis Beach","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48089112084735,"sku":"9783319954042","price":129.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_83874927-c06a-459b-9130-6438aec15ee9.jpg?v=1769108249","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/structural-injustices-in-swedish-education-dennis-beach-9783319954042","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
