Décrochage scolaire, absentéisme, éducation à domicile, école privée hors contrat, de l'éducation séparée à l'inclusion scolaire, les refus d'école interrogent de façon pressante le monde éducatif contemporain. C'est sur leur histoire longue, complexe, et jusqu'alors méconnue, que ce livre propose de revenir. Dans une logique interdisciplinaire, l'ouvrage montre la multiplicité des formes et des significations des refus d'école, ainsi que l'attitude et les réponses de l'État éducateur face à ces diverses conduites contestataires. Il questionne les résistances à l'ordre scolaire, les refus de la forme de l'école, la mise en place de dispositifs éducatifs alternatifs, ou encore la nature du débat public. Au?delà des acteurs et chercheurs de l'éducation, ce sujet sensible interpelle la société tout entière, car il questionne les principes fondamentaux de notre système éducatif.

"The transformative power of education is widely recognised. Yet, harnessing the transformative power of education is complex for exactly those people and communities who would benefit the most. Much scholarship is available describing the ways in which educational access, opportunity and outcomes are unequally distributed; and much scholarship is dedicated to analysing and critiquing the 'problems' of education. This volume gratefully builds on such analysis, to take a more constructive stance: examining how to better enable education to fulfil its promise of transforming lives. Harnessing the Transformative Power of Education returns overall to a broader language of educational change rather than reduce our sense of scale and scope of 'transformation' to what might be measured in or by schools. It offers a series of practical, local but system wide and socially responsible practices, policies and analyses to support the ways that education can work at its best. The projects described here vary in scale and scope but are rooted in a wider sense of community and social responsibility so that education is considered as a necessary sustainable process to ensure productive futures for all. Its contributors include not only scholars, but also professional experts and young people. The book's aim is to share and advance authentic possibilities for enabling all children and young people to flourish through the transformative power of education".
