It is thus a graduate school for those who want to understand why our school system looks like it does today, want to nuance the image of the school “in the good old days” marketed in the media, or reveal the conflicts and injustices that have characterized the history of education. In all, the graduate school funds ten PhD-students, and includes two externally funded PhD-students.
