This is the first book to apply the sociology of Norbert Elias to the field of sociology of education, offering fruitful lines of research developed from the application of Elias's theoretical framework. Beginning by introducing Elias theory to those who are unfamiliar with it, Lybeck goes on to explore ways his work can be applied to areas of education research including widening participation, education and the state and the development of knowledge. Topics discussed in detail include: the relationship between social control and self-control; the difference between involvement and detachment in research; and the concept of game-models to explain unintended consequences in education policy. Lybeck also situates Elias's thought alongside other key thinkers including Bourdieu, Foucault and Abbott, whose theories have been widely applied in education research. An Eliasian or figurational sociology of education points to more historical, processual and post-critical approaches to education studies. As the first book to open up Elias' work to researchers and students in education, a range of familiar topics including identity, decolonization and globalization can be seen in a new light.

Recensioner i media

This ambitious book is a good example of the more subtle understandings of Elias. * The British Journal of Sociology of Education * Makes valuable contributions to the sociology of education and to figurational sociology, the research tradition of Norbert Elias. The book provides a concise introduction to the oft-overlooked work of Norbert Elias and a comprehensive overview of how to apply Eliass signature concepts to the study of education, making a strong case that his ideas belong alongside the better-known contributions of Pierre Bourdieu and Michel Foucault in the sociology of education. Along the way Lybeck also makes a compelling argument that the study of education belongs at the center of figurational sociology today. * Jacob Habinek, Linkping University, Sweden *
