This book focuses on how school-level features affect student resistance to education from a comparative angle, taking into account cross-national differences. All over the world, policy makers, school administrators, teachers, and parents are dealing with students who resist education. Resisting school might ultimately lead to unqualified dropout, and it is therefore crucial to understand what triggers resistance in students. The book uses the ISCY data set to study multilevel questions in detail. It does so based on the view that system effects and school effects intertwine: system-level policy measures affect student outcomes in part by shaping school-level features, and school effects may differ according to certain system-level features. We start from an overarching theoretical framework that ties the various city-specific insights together, and contains empirical studies from Barcelona, Bergen, Ghent, Montréal Reykjavik, Sacramento, and Turku. It shows that, in all countries, the act of resisting school is more likely to occur among the socio-economically disadvantaged, and those in the most disadvantaged schools. However, educational system features, including tracking, free school choice, and school autonomy, are important driving factors of the differences between schools. As such, systems have the tools to curb between-school differences in resistance. Previous research turns resistance into a problem of individual students. However, if school or system features engender resistance to school, policy initiatives directed at individual students may solve the problem only partially.

Dit boek biedt sociologische beschouwingen over het onderwijs. Een dertigtal gerenommeerde onderwijswetenschappers presenteert een breed scala aan inzichten en maakt duidelijk dat een sociologische kijk op onderwijs een vruchtbare en onmisbare aanvulling vormt op allerlei andere perspectieven .Daarmee is het boek een aanrader voor iedereen die betrokken is bij onderwijs, van de student die wat verder gevorderd is , tot onderwijsprofessionals die zich willen verdiepen in de maatschappelijke betekenis van hun werk. Ook wie beroepshalve bezig is met de inrichting van onderwijs (directeur, bestuurder, beleidsbeïnvloeder, ambtenaar, politicus) doet er goed aan dit boek te lezen. De inzichten blijken opvallend goed bruikbaar in de analyse van de complexiteit waar het moderne onderwijsstelsel zich voor gesteld ziet. Zowel de situatie in Nederland als in Vlaanderen wordt daarbij in beeld gebracht. (Bron: flaptekst)
