«This ambitious book is a good example of the more subtle understandings of Elias.»
The British Journal of Sociology of Education
«Makes valuable contributions to the sociology of education and to figurational sociology, the research tradition of Norbert Elias. The book provides a concise introduction to the oft-overlooked work of Norbert Elias and a comprehensive overview of how to apply Elias’s signature concepts to the study of education, making a strong case that his ideas belong alongside the better-known contributions of Pierre Bourdieu and Michel Foucault in the sociology of education. Along the way Lybeck also makes a compelling argument that the study of education belongs at the center of figurational sociology today.»
