ABSTRACT

This special issue is going to address Nordic conceptions of inclusive and special education. In particular, the issue will explore the potential contribution of theoretical and empirical approaches of Nordic scholarship, including academic work focusing on Nordic approaches from abroad, to the analysis of inclusive and special education. Emphasis will be made on the distinctiveness and diversity of national, regional and local experience of inclusive and special educational production of meaning, theory formation and empirically grounded social science research. The shared goal of the authors is to craft an account of what the imagined ‘Nordic’ model of inclusive and special education entails and to explore ways in which this model and the practice associated with it may have relevance beyond the Nordic community.
