Abstract

- In recent years, there has been an increased societal and political debate about how the governing of welfare institutions can be best organized in order to serve the public and uphold democracy. In education, positively loaded key concepts such as equivalence, quality and legal security have dominated the debate. Simultaneously, governance ideas implied in NPM-policies, in particular the increased development of quality assurance systems and accountability regimes, have been criticized for its unintended consequences and possible narrowing of the societal mandate for education. Concerns have been raised about a need for revitalizing trust in professionals, at the same time as ensuring a certain amount of control. But how can such a balance be found?By introducing and raising critical questions on dominant governance discourses in education, including issues about professionalism and quality, this seminar invites deliberations among policy makers, researchers and practitioners on how we may seek new ways of making welfare institutions sustainable in democratic societies. A core issue is how education constructively can contribute to the promotion and upholding of democracy.The four presenters will provide brief introductions with different, yet related, perspectives on the theme “Governing and Professionalism”. Thereafter all participants are invited to a shared discussion on the opportunities and challenges for collaboration among policy makers, researchers and practitioners to ensure education that serve the public good in a democratically troublesome time.
