Research Field:History and Theoryof Education and CurriculumThe research field “History and Theory of Education andCurriculum” analyses the development of the educationalsystems in modern and late modern times. It focuses in particularon the organization and the content of the citizens’ training,the question of fairness and inequality in education, as well asthe effects of migration and globalization. The subject matterof educational systems is processed by the research field at alllevels – from pre-school to schooling, from on-the-job-trainingto university. Within the agenda of the research field, its teammembers work together co-operatively and interdisciplinary bycombining internationally acknowledged research approaches fromthe fields of history, sociology, and pedagogy. The close involvementof the research field in the international research community hastherefore a particular advantage.Combining historical and social approaches results not only in newmodels for researching the development of schooling systems butalso in considerable advantages in terms of analyses of currentproblem areas in the education sector. Thus, for instance, theresearch field’s scientists are involved in the evaluation of today’sschool reforms, as made concrete in 2012 with the evaluation of theprimary school reform in Luxembourg (introduced in 2009).The research fields’ expertise relates to one challenge in particular,namely: the reproduction of social disparities, which is often relatedto the question of migration. Facing continuous challenges in thisarea as an industrial site since the mid-19th century, Luxembourgis of special interest here as a case study enabling the improvementof new interdisciplinary models.The research field’s activity not only shows from high-rankedarticles in leading scientific journals. Its scientists have alsoreceived generous funding for their research projects, and moreoverobtained distinguished prizes – in 2012, for instance, OutstandingBook Awards by the American Educational Research Association.17
