Abstract [en]
The object of this study is the research field of early education in Sweden. Published articles in four scientifically educational journals in Sweden between the year 1991 and 2006 are investigated during the mentioned period of one and a half decennium. The intention is to analyze the result in the light of educational, societal and socio-political reforms. The main issue of this project is concerned with what kind of educational theme the articles examine and what kind of questions that are raised. A historical perspective is emphasized. The study points at interesting traits among which the complex relation to the school is one. The public school and a traditional discourse connected to the school seems to have had and have a strong impact of what's going on in the research field of early education in Sweden.
