Kommentare/ Inhalte: Democratic values play an important role in Scandinavian social and education policy. In this context, overcoming segregation of marginalized groups has a long tradition in the Nordic welfare states. In these efforts, the concepts of participation and inclusion play a major role. However, tensions, obstacles and backlashes exist. The seminar will give the opportunity to get to know the development of social and education policy in Scandinavia, focusing on participation and inclusion. The geographical focus is on Sweden, but also the situation in neighbouring countries is topic for discussion. Questions are for example: What are the basic ideas behind social and education policy in a Nordic context? What are successful strategies for implementing participation and inclusion in social and educational services? Which obstacles and limits exist? – The course is organised as a weekend seminar and requires the active participation of students.
