In the process of higher education choice, the prospective students compare and organise universities into a preference order, which indicates status hierarchies among institutions. In this study, the aim is to investigate how (and based on what) recent business graduates construct institutional hierarchies in the national higher education landscape in Finland. Moreover, we ask how the geographical location of universities contributes to such hierarchies. Based on 43 interviews with Master’s degree graduates from four universities and their satellite campuses, we argue that the long distances between universities in a geographically large country eventually contest the relevance of status comparisons between universities, when it actually comes to making a choice. This does not indicate, however, that institutional hierarchies would not exist nor be of relevance. Our findings reveal that hierarchy is produced through the perceived selectivity of admissions, future exchange value of education, and competitiveness/inclusiveness of student culture.

This article explores musical parenting in Norwegian schools of music and arts. These schools aim to provide extra-curricular activities in music and other art forms to all children and adolescents regardless of their social and economic background, but the schools reveal traits of social and cultural exclusion, serving mainly the children of the middle classes. Taking this into account, we set out to understand the parents’ role in relation to music participation and explored different classed approaches to musical parenting in these schools, borrowing Lareau’s (Citation2011) notion of concerted cultivation and based on a Bourdieusian-inspired framework. Drawing on 14 qualitative interviews among parents of music students in schools of music and arts, we found that they invested time, energy, and money in their child(ren)’s musical activities in the schools, and as such, we also found traces of concerted cultivation, and some classed connections to different approaches to musical parenting.

This article examines individualising processes in the context of Municipal Adult Education in Swedish for Immigrants (SFI). Demands to adapt education to individual students’ needs are increasingly evident in adult education policies, requiring accountable authorities’ active engagement in enacting effective organisational frameworks while accommodating the labour market’s needs. Such endeavours are often sources of tensions. Conceptual tools from cultural-historical activity theory are employed to address the complexity and multiplicity of individualising processes. An analysis of policy documents and interviews with municipal actors shows that individualising processes are played out through tensions found in three areas of object formation: making of an individual student; making of an effective education; and making of a coherent society. Hence, the study unpacks how individualising processes elicit transformations of SFI education through destabilisation/restabilisation cycles in the involved actors’ activities, concluding by highlighting the concept’s dynamic and potentiality for development in contemporary adult education settings.
