About this ebook

Swedish School Choice offers a comprehensive analysis of Sweden's free school system, addressing critical questions about educational equity and the impact of market-based reforms. The book challenges simplistic views by examining academic performance, socioeconomic sorting, and long-term consequences. It uniquely tracks students over time using longitudinal data to reveal complex, evolving effects often missed in cross-sectional studies.

The study explores how school choice affects student achievement by comparing outcomes in free versus municipal schools, while controlling for socioeconomic factors. It also investigates how these policies contribute to segregation along socioeconomic and ethnic lines. By outlining the historical context of education reform in Sweden, the book provides a nuanced understanding of the Swedish model.

The book progresses systematically, with sections dedicated to student achievement, sorting effects, and long-term consequences, ultimately contributing to a more informed discussion on education policy.
