Governing by Inspection

In recent decades governing practices in education have become highly contradictory: deregulation and decentralisation are accompanied by re-regulation and increased centralisation, while the performative effects of over-regulation contribute to considerable tension in the development of education governance across Europe and globally. This book looks at attempts to manage these tensions in Europe and across three national systems, Sweden, Scotland and England, through the development of inspection as a governing practice.
