This book is a collection of papers from an international conference held at Karlstad University, Sweden, 29 November to 1 December 2010. At the conference a number of leading Nordic researchers from the four subjects Civics, History, Geography and Religious Education, met scholars from England, Germany and Canada. In focus are questions like: What are the main patterns of research in the respective fields? Are there similarities in questions and types of research within these four fields of research? What advices do researchers give teachers, based on their research?
These questions are addressed in this volume, a book that deserves to be read by researchers, teacher educators and school teachers interested in research.
