[En anglais] The toxic ideological cocktail that poisoned Swedish schools

Previously, there have been two arguments about Sweden. The first is that any decline in standards is entirely due to a set of neoliberal reforms that saw the introduction of parent choice and school vouchers. However, it seems equally legitimate to point, as I have done, to the highly progressivist view of education espoused in Sweden and wonder whether this is the main cause.

Henrekson and Wennström contend that the problem is a toxic mix of both market reforms and educational philosophy.
