This open access volume explores the complex dynamics of ethnic and racial segregation in Norwegian schools, particularly in Oslo. It examines how educational institutions can reflect and challenge societal norms regarding race, culture, and identity. The book argues that while Norway pursues an egalitarian ethos, recent trends in school segregation undermine these ideals.
The major contribution of this book lies in its critical exploration of the intersectionality of race, culture, and education, grounded in critical pedagogy principles. Through case studies, personal narratives, and literary analyses, the authors highlight how marginalized students navigate their identities within systems that often stigmatize them.
Topics include authentic multicultural education, the reclamation of space and identity by non-white students, and the examination of “ghetto schools” as sites of both challenge and empowerment. Special features include visual illustrations and engaging literary analyses. Ultimately this volume serves as a compelling call for educational reform and cultural dialogue, emphasizing the transformative potential of education in promoting social justice and community cohesion.
