  Dette kapitlet beskriver den nye overordnede delen av læreplanverket og tidstypiske trekk ved fagfornyelsen. Ifølge stortingsmeldinger og offentlige utredninger handler reformarbeidet om å realisere "skolens brede samfunnsmandat". Det skal ivareta elevenes rettigheter, vektlegge samfunnsverdier og skjerpe den faglige fordypningen og læringen. Kapitlet har til hensikt å avklare hvordan den overordnede delen utleder mandatet og bidrar til å forme en styrende samfunnskontrakt for skolen.

  This article examines how three national curricula for basic education in Finland reflect transnational policy perspectives from 1994 to the present. By developing a conceptual apparatus for curriculum analysis, we examine how national curricula in Finland can be interpreted as modifications of transnational policy transfers shaped by international comparisons in today’s society. Transnational policy has been the subject of numerous studies, but ongoing curriculum modifications of policy transfers across reform periods have rarely been examined. Using a systems theory approach, we seek to understand how curriculum revisions are designed as combinations of conditional and purposive orientations. The most important contributions of this paper lie in its use of a mixture of these orientations, and its demonstration of the particular functions that these orientations play in both facilitating and constricting transnational policy transfer as evidenced by our analytical apparatus. Keywords: Curriculum, transnational policy, education reform, policy transfer.

  This paper introduces the questions and approaches of a five-nation cross-cultural study of state-based curriculum-making discussed in this issue of JCS. The paper reviews the two decade-long interest of many nations in state-based curriculum-making and presents a framework for thinking about state-based curriculum-making as a tool of educational governance.

  This chapter examines the way professional freedom is shaping as well as is being shaped across two periods of compulsory school reform in Norway. It is based on data collected through surveys given to professionals in schools involved in curriculum development, textbook production, implementation and teaching. We are above all interested in how goals and expectations towards a national curriculum are expressed by different groups of reform actors, how their conceptions correspond with the way the existing curriculum specifies goals and contents and how their conceptions interplay with reform efforts that increasingly emphasize assessment and outcomes. A range of reform studies indicates that a detailed curriculum restricts professional freedom in schools. Our own studies as well as research findings from similar studies in Norway show that a curriculum that focuses on goals and contents creates room to move for professionals although it does not necessarily enhance self-control. We also see that teachers’ conceptions and preferences are changing along with national reform towards specification of minimum content and assessment criteria, partly contradicting the current curriculum in Norway, which holds the school level accountable for both development processes and outcomes.

• Sivesind, Kirsten (2012). Trajectories of national school inspection: between norms and rights. Vis sammendrag

  The paper examines how legal, professional, social and scientific norms are justified and applied within guidelines for school inspection in Norway. The paper takes Max Weber's idealtype of the bureaucracy into regard and shows how the combination and conflict of norms appears as a consequence of paralell and changing mindsets within the state administration towards old and new forms of governing.

  This paper provides an overview of governing structures in Norwegian education, which are important to understand current inspection devices and practices. The overall problem of analysis is how modernizing trajectories in the national school inspection system are changing along with new methodologies of policy. In Norway, school inspection has for many decades been conducted in terms of advicement, organized by national authorities to support municipalities and schools in their effort of structuring and developing their educative programs and activities. Historically, this practice has been highly regulated but at the same time decentralised, motivated by municipalities’ need for guidance to assure that education is in accordance with the overall legislation (Sivesind, 2008). Today this institutional practice is reorganized; new tools and methods are introduced, like school auditing and self-evaluation. In the first part of the paper we describe differences between tools and methodologies applied in current systems for school inspection, like auditing, monitoring, supervision and advicement. Thereafter we discuss implications of introducing school auditing within the Norwegian context. Drawing on Pollit and Bouckaert (2004), we examine differences between compliance-oriented audit, which is heavily legalistic, and performance-audit which focuses on observed outcomes.These two forms of auditing is not contradictory but correspond to opposite accounts of trajectories. A related problem, discussed in the last part of the paper, is how different froms of inspection conceptualise norms through applied methodologies; wether inspection focus on norms as devices for action and/or norms as descriptive standards, detailing civil and individual rights. The paper concludes on how justification of legal norms depends on applied tools and methodologies in national school inspection, reflecting modernizing trajectories within a European policy context (Ozga, 2011).
