From an Industrial to a Post-industrial Society: Changing Conceptions of Equality in Education.
Ahonen, Sirkka
Educational Review, v54 n2 p173-81 Jun 2002
Educational reform in Finland shifted from 1960s welfare state ideology, which viewed education as an instrument of social justice and equal opportunity, to the 1980s neoliberal ideology of competition and individualism, to the economic depression of the early 1990s, which resulted in a new definition of educational equality.
