This chapter traces how national teacher education policy discourse in Denmarkand Sweden is being transformed by opaque, albeit often inclusive, processes intransnational policy forums, such as the Bologna Process, OECD, and EU. Thisis facilitated by “soft law” surrounding the imagined needs of modern nations,if they are to succeed in “an increasingly competitive global race amongknowledge economies.” In the case of the Bologna Process, the transformativeeffects are often rather direct. More often, however, effects touch upon nationaleducational agendas in indirect ways, in terms of an emerging, overarchinglogic and governance technologies like comparisons, stocktaking, standards,performance indicators, benchmarking, and best practice. These transnationaltemplates make national teacher education programs comparable. They arefueled by mutual peer pressure among competing nations. Consequently,Danish teacher education discourse has emerged from a distinctly nationalvocational seminary tradition, into a modernized university college discoursethat increasingly fits the transnational templates of comparability, albeit ata slower pace than her Swedish neighbor. It is often difficult to notice thepervasive impact of transnational policy, as reforms of culturally sensitiveschool and teacher education areas are often discursively reinscribed in heatednational debates. The EU and OECD are not popular figures to pull out inpublic political debate, in either Denmark or Sweden. The Bologna Processis largely unknown to the broader public. Theoretically, this chapter draws onpost-Foucauldian governmentality studies. Empirically, it draws on discourseanalysis of European (EU), Danish and Swedish national documents, andliterature on policy reform. |
