ABSTRACT
Our aim in this final chapter is to summarise the respective discursive formations in the dynamics of the four fields of Finnish basic-education politics. This will give us a basis on which to outline our concluding explanation of the success of Peruskoulu, as well as to speculate on or even anticipate the problems it is facing and may face in the near future. Thus, we venture to offer proposals for discussion on the future of Finnish schooling and to give our reaction to Pasi Sahlberg’s (2011) insightful and thought-provoking subtitle in his bestseller The Finnish Lessons: “What Can the World Learn from Educational Change in Finland?”
