Sexuality, secularism and the nation - reading Swedish school policies

Author

Summary, in English

In my analysis of recent revisions to Swedish school policy texts, I look for traces of this relationship, reading school policy texts as the materialization of notions of national belonging. For this analysis, I engage discussions that question the secularity of secularism and critique notions of futurity and universal childhood.
