Abstract

This article explains the role of noncredit-based leadership education in, or aimed at, civil society in Sweden, and it discusses the extent to which this role has changed over the last 100 years. Working from previous research, it explores the idea that the specific features of Swedish civil society—including the prominent role of popular movement organizations, and the system of government support for such organizations—have shaped the organization of such education in Sweden, giving a central role to the broad concept of knowledge and education as folkbildning. Examples suggest that as academic education has become more common among leaders in civil society, leadership education conducted within civil society organizations has become increasingly normative and often tailor-made to suit the needs and ideology of specific organizations. This partially explains why university- and credit-based education of civil society leaders and managers has remained comparatively limited in Sweden, while noncredit-based education developed in civil society has become comparatively prevalent. It also explains why it is based on a different approach than university-based education. As a secondary aim, this article seeks to highlight areas of further research that will increase understanding of the role of noncredit-based leadership education in, or aimed at, civil society in Sweden and to discuss the extent this role has changed over time.

大众运动传统在塑造瑞典公民社会领导教育中的作用
这篇文章解释了非基于学分的领导力教育在瑞典公民社会中的作用,并讨论了这一角色在过去100年里的变化程度。从之前的研究中,它探讨了瑞典公民社会的具体特征——包括大众运动组织的突出作用,以及政府对这些组织的支持体系——塑造了瑞典的这种教育组织,使知识和教育作为民间教育的广泛概念发挥了核心作用。例子表明,随着学术教育在公民社会领导人中变得越来越普遍,在公民社会组织中进行的领导力教育也变得越来越规范,而且往往是量身定制的,以适应特定组织的需求和意识形态。这部分解释了为什么瑞典公民社会领导人和管理者的大学和学分教育相对有限,而公民社会发展的非学分教育却相对普遍。这也解释了为什么它基于不同于大学基础教育的方法。作为次要目的,本文试图强调进一步研究的领域,这些研究将增加对非学分领导教育在瑞典公民社会中或针对公民社会的作用的理解,并讨论这种作用随着时间的推移而变化的程度。订阅JNEL
