The aim of the study is to make a comparison between the nursery/preschool recommendations (by the state) made in 1972 and the one used today. Here I’ve focused on the posts of looking after children vis-à-vis the educational responsibility. Also the type of education recommended in 1972 and what type of education recommended today. My questions concerns what the preschool recommendations from 1972 are and how they are viewed and applied today in the 2000nds. Since my questions has to do with ideologies regarding children, family and society I choose to do a specific form of text and content analysis called Idea and ideology analysis. In my theoretical chapter I choose two aspects central for my field of examination. These are discourse and discourse analysis, I choose them as they concern how people of different professions in society uses language to categorize and discuss various phenomena surrounding us. Discourse and discourse analysis also includes a description of what the Swedish discourse regarding childcare looks like during the two years I’ve been doing this study. My findings are that the preschool in both 1972 and today both have the responsibility to look after children and the educational task. I’ve also found that in 1972 a certain type of education is recommended for preschools while as today the recommendations don’t contain only one specific type of education.
