This thesis is a literature study examining how EU is affecting or governing Swedish educational politics. The theoretical framework for this study is europeanization and governance-theory explored through the Open Method of Coordination. The questions to be explored are: 1. What are the goals promoted by EU in Educational politics and how do these goals relate to Swedish knowledge- and value-goals? and 2. In what ways is the EU trying to influence Swedish educational politics and finally is there any signs of educational harmonization between EU and Sweden? This study sets out how EU has had an impact on Swedish educational politics symbolizing signs of top-down europeanization and harmonization. The EU impact on Swedish educational politics has been based on EU use of the Open Method of Coordination through monitoring, assessing and reporting on Swedish educational politics and through the creation of common goals and strategies.
