From learning to labor to learning for marginality : Neo-liberalism, new socialhierarchies, school and impoverished suburbs in Swedish Metropolitan districts
- 2010
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The organization of schools in Sweden has recently taken a significant turn toward neo-liberalism. A number of elements are involved. In this article we point to a risk of self segregation in these developments by means of which ethnic minority, economically disadvantaged and immigrant groups become concentrated in the same schools, within mainly the public sector. We also suggest that these schools thus face serious difficulties when it comes to creating encounters between different social, ethnic and religious groups as a school capable of mobilization for citizenship. We need such schools but there is no evidence that schools are developing in these directions in the neo-liberal era.

From Learning to Labour to Learning for Marginality: School Segregation and Marginalisation in Swedish Suburbs

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In this article, using data from ethnographic research, we try to present some glimpses of the way education is described as an experience and possibility ‘from below’, by pupils who grow up and study in schools in the most segregated and territorially stigmatized suburbs on the outskirts of our major cities. What we feel they describe is an experience of schooling for surviving the social and economic consequences of curtailed citizenship in a post‐industrial society rather than one of schooling that offers possibilities of integration and full citizenship or social transformation. Our findings have significant policy implications in this respect. Sweden has historically pursued projects aimed at educational inclusion but has recently taken a significant turn toward neo‐liberalism and educational consumerism, since which time various disadvantaged groups have become increasingly concentrated compared with others in under‐achieving schools in an economically threatened public sector. The article discusses some aspects and possible consequences of this development.

Learning Processes and Social Mobilization in a Swedish Metropolitan Hip-Hop Collective
- 2012
-
In: Urban education (Beverly Hills, Calif.). - : Corwin Press, Inc.. - 0042-0859 .- 1552-8340. ; 5:47, s. 939-958
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Based on ethnographic research on the encounter between local culture and schools in multicultural suburban areas, this article explores possibilities suggested by autonomous learning activities in a hip-hop collective that may have a potential to break urban segregation patterns. The collective?s artistic production raises questions that have not been answered in schools, such as how the increasing class divisions between different parts of the urban landscape should be understood and dealt with. Different types of learning are identified connected to the self, others, and careers. Implications for schooling are briefly discussed.

Book chapter (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Over the last twenty-five years the urban music and dance style known as Hip-hop has become a widespread form of communication carried out and enjoyed by people throughout the world. However it has grown from its original roots in rap music and break dancing in many different directions. On the one hand it represents a multi-billion dollar industry of big-time, best-selling artists who market songs that focus on wealth, possessions and crime, often with a misogynistic attitude. But on the other it is a way of life for many young people with a political awareness that is intricately woven into every aspect of their daily lives. The present chapter explores some dimensions of the creativity of Hip-hop. In particular the critical potential and transformative capacity of these activities are discussed.
