Drawing from Margaret Archer's extensive theoretical concepts, it explores a novel area for critical realist theorizing by examining how diverse spatial contexts influence the functioning of the educational system. Spanning from morphogenetic cycles and the emergence of educational systems at a macro level to the exercise of reflexivity among individual school leaders and students at a micro level, the book employs a range of Archer's theoretical frameworks.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn contrast to the emphasis on educational uniformity and similarity among Nordic and Scandinavian countries, and the promotion of the concept of the 'Nordic Model,' this book highlights the distinctions between these nations and regional differences within Norway. As such, it appeals to scholars with interests in education, sociology, critical realism, educational sciences and pedagogy, education history, and political science, as well as those with a specific focus on the Nordic region.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 453g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367756796\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44642014036218,"sku":"9780367756796","price":42.83,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1697218178563_book.jpg?v=1697484203","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-morphogenesis-of-the-norwegian-educational-system-emergence-and-development-from-a-critical-realist-perspective-9780367756796","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
