Centre de recherche interuniversitaire sur la formation et la profession enseignante (CRIFPE)

This edited collection brings together scholars from Canadian and international institutions to discuss the concept of educationalization, a trend in modern societies of transferring social responsibilities onto the school system. It offers critical observations on the way the concept has been applied and its meaning construed.

This book brings a new dimension to the literature on educationalization by including Catholicism, rights to education, historical studies grounded in Canada and Chile, Indigenous issues, and the concept in relation to our digital age in the conversation. In these contributions, the concept is re-signified in that its heuristic power is expanded or problematized.
