About Agneta Linné

Agneta Linné is Professor Emeritus of Education. Her research concerns curriculum theory and history of education as well as teacher education and epistemic traditions in higher education. She also takes an interest in women history.

One strand in Agneta Linné's research focus upon teacher education and explores how its content and character have taken shape historically and been transformed over time, alongside changing social and economic conditions, values and pedagogic traditions. Other studies explore teachers' work and pedagogical practices.

Part of Linné's work highlights an ongoing discussion on rethinking curriculum theory; she has also explored epistemic cultures and practices in higher education. She has headed the research project Practical Knowledge Meets Academia and been co-responsible for the project Language Matters, both exploring knowledge traditions in teacher education and supported by the Swedish Research Council; she has also been co-responsible for the research project Shaping the Public Sphere: a Collective Biography of Stockholm Women 1880-1920, supported by the Swedish Foundation for the Humanities and Social Sciences.

Among her publications are chapters in PalgraveMacmillan's Girls' Secondary Education in the Western World (eds. James C. Albisetti, Joyce Goodman, and Rebecca Rogers 2010), and Routledge's Rethinking Schooling (eds. Ian Westbury and Geoffrey Milburn 2007).
