Abstract | This article proposes that the scope for parental involvement is limited in the current Swedish school system, despite its claim to the highest level of democracy and its extensive marketisation and juridification. In order to define this deficit, we introduce the notion of democratic parental involvement. We further trace the history of the pronounced reluctance towards parents seeking to influence the education of their children in Swedish education policy since the 1940s. Three characteristic ideas in this policy are highlighted: (1) its concept of 'democratic education'; (2) the idea of 'the best interest of the child'; and (3) the concept of 'the professional teacher'. We argue that these strands together make the idea of democratic parental involvement being a positive force in education virtually inconceivable. (As Provided). |
