  • Rescaling education policy: Central–local relations and the politics of scale in England and Sweden

    Ingela Naumann, Ingela K Naumann et al.ARTICLEPolicy & Politics2020Cited by: 1References: 36

    Governments worldwide have sought to introduce greater choice and competition as mechanisms to improve the quality of education provision and outcomes. However, there is considerable cross-national variation in education policy, particularly regarding the role of local government. To explain such differences, this article focuses on recent reforms in compulsory education in England and Sweden. It shows that although governments in both countries …

  • Why Swedes Trust the State and Scots Do Not: An Exploration of the Diverse Protestant Roots of Modern Welfare Systems

    Open AccessIngela Naumann, Ingela K Naumann et al.ARTICLEJournal of Historical Sociology2020References: 39

    This paper explores how the Protestant traditions of Calvinist Presbyterianism and Lutheranism have shaped church-state relations differently in Scotland and Sweden, resulting in different understandings of the role of the state and civil society in public welfare. It finds that high levels of public trust in the state's authority and state intervention in Sweden can be traced back to Lutheran doctrine and institutionally close links between the …

  • Access to Childcare in Europe: Parents' Logistical Challenges in Cross‐national Perspective

  • Lutheranism and the Nordic Welfare States in Comparison

    Pirjo Markkola, Ingela Naumann et al.ARTICLEJournal of Church and State2014Cited by: 8

    Lutheranism is a dominant feature of the Scandinavian countries or, as they are known in the European context, the Nordic countries—Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden. Church historians recognize the Scandinavian countries for their long tradition of the Evangelical Lutheran State Churches. Strong ties between the church and the state date back to the Middle Ages and, in particular, to the Reformation, which reached Scandinavia in the …

  • Childcare Politics in the ‘New’ Welfare State

    Ingela NaumannCHAPTERThe Politics Of The New Welfare…2012

    Childcare, a neglected policy issue in the past, has recently become a central element of welfare state reform in many advanced economies. This chapter discusses the development of post-industrial childcare policy and its growing saliency in modern welfare states by comparing two different cases—Sweden, an early mover, introducing new childcare policy in the 1970s, and Germany, a late-comer, adopting similar policies in the early 2000s. Employing…

    Open AccessIngela NaumannARTICLENordic Journal of Social Research2011Cited by: 23References: 15

    Extensive public debate is being waged across mature welfare states as to whether social services are best provided by the state or the market. This article examines developments in Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) policy in Sweden and the United Kingdom, identifying trends towards marketization and universalization of ECEC that suggest a complex picture of competing policy logics and goals in the restructuring of welfare states. This ar…

  • Child care and feminism in West Germany and Sweden in the 1960s and 1970s

    Open AccessIngela Naumann, Ingela K NaumannARTICLEJournal of European Social Policy2005Cited by: 25References: 8

    Feminist welfare-state research has repeatedly pointed to the link between women’s social rights and the extent to which they are freed from family obligations. Thus the availability of sufficient extra-familial child care in order to combine work and family life should be a central claim of women activists. Swedish child-care politics of the 1960s and 1970s reflects this logic well: Swedish feminists lobbied intensely for the expansion of public…
