Styrning och ideologiska dilemman i Skolverkets skolutveckling.

Drug education (ANT) in Swedish schools has a history over decades. Here, the pedagogi-cal approaches fluctuated between transfer of solid knowledge from the teacher to the pupil, and working with values and have a more pupil-driven teaching - a classic dichotomy. Rhe-toric about the school's way of teaching has thus always been ambivalent and subject to re-examination. The study analyses various textual material on ANT education. As a methodo-logical tool Billigs concept Ideological dilemmas is used, which is a fruitful way to identify the rhetorical building blocks of (school) politics, but also to analyse political talk in more detail. The article analyses the ideological dilemmas under three dichotomies: Knowledge vs. values, teacher control vs. learner control, and prevention vs. promotion. Throughout we can see this question of how teaching could be successful, given the tension between autho-rity and democracy. The article concludes by relating this basic ideological dilemma in a wi-der discursive context of governance in our time. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
