Contribution
The purpose of this paper is to examine the pedagogical practice in relation to how this practice is constituted by a national cultural structure and how this practice also constitutes to the national cultural practice. It discusses why ethnic minority children keep their position as members of a minority group in the educational system within the child care service, when the pedagogical staff works to obtain the opposite. On this basis it is a study of how pedagogy can be understood as producing the order of society. This is based on the fact that in the praxological theory of Pierre Bourdieu, the distribution of power works through the forms of cultural capital corresponding to society’s distribution of power.
The research questions are:
How the pedagogical practice organizes daily life through differentiations and categorizing children and children's acting?
Who is included and excluded on this background through construction of otherness and normality?
How is the structure of differences related to a national state organization?
