Myter om En studie av dominerande i politiska texter 1990 -2009 by Maria Terning explores the construction of individuals, particularly students, within specific discursive formations in relation to others. Terning's work, rooted in a scientific tradition that views individuals as products of discursive formations, delves into how societal and personal identities are shaped. The author's interest in how students are constructed and the role of education as an arena for social reproduction is evident throughout. Terning examines the impact of various societal ideas on individuals' abilities to shape their lives, emphasizing the importance of understanding these discursive formations. The book is aimed at scholars, students, and practitioners in the fields of education, sociology, and political science, offering insights into the power of discourse in shaping educational experiences and societal expectations.

Global migration movements are also reflected in classrooms. However, the professional re-entry of migrant teachers with and without a refugee background has been neglected for a long time. This publication, which was developed in the European project "International Teachers for Tomorrow's School" (ITTS), is dedicated to this question. In seven country contributions, the opportunities and challenges of returning to work in Belgium, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Poland, Slovenia and Türkiye are examined - for some of the countries, new ground was broken. It is shown which conditions favour, challenge or prevent a new professional start. In addition, the results of the cross-national ITTS study are presented, in which high satisfaction values are reflected among those teachers who succeeded in re-entering the profession despite many hurdles. Finally, the findings of the project are condensed into a series of hints and recommendations.

Tous les individus, et parmi eux les enseignants, les élèves et leurs parents, sont soucieux de justifier leurs actes au regard de critères de justice. Ceux qui estiment être traités avec injustice - presque le tiers des élèves - mais aussi ceux qui pensent traiter les autres avec injustice, en éprouvent des conséquences multiples et graves. Les recherches convergent vers ce constat. On les trouvera ici présentées par quelques-uns des meilleurs spécialistes parmi lesquels L. Bègue et C. Dalbert pour la psychologie sociale, F. Dubet pour la sociologie, A. Trannoy pour l'économie. Comment, alors, expliquer que les sentiments d'injustice soient si prégnants, si fréquents, à l'école en particulier ? Ce livre apporte des réponses, venues de disciplines différentes et de recherches récentes. L'une est que la force même du besoin de justice se traduit par la négation d'injustices réelles ou par le fait d'en rendre les victimes responsables. Une autre est que tous les acteurs n'ont pas les mêmes représentations de ce qui est juste. Par exemple, les enseignants se soucient surtout d'impartialité, tandis que les élèves se soucient davantage d'être traités avec «respect». En fait, autre leçon des recherches présentées ici, les élèves, comme leurs enseignants, mobilisent une combinaison de plusieurs critères pour juger de la justice d'une situation. Le mérite ne suffit pas, d'autant que tous les acteurs de l'école sont bien conscients que ce critère est souvent bafoué dans la pratique. Des questions scientifiques se posent alors, par exemple comprendre pourquoi ceux qui ont le mieux réussi l'école sont plutôt moins persuadés que les autres que l'école récompense vraiment le mérite. Se posent aussi des questions politiques ou pédagogiques. Comment diminuer le nombre d'élèves qui se sentent traités avec injustice à l'école ? Comment mettre le besoin de justice au service de la justice de l'école ?
