Schooling attention deficit hyperactivity disorders

This thesis effects a (dis)ordered look as a disordered construct. A Thesis by Publication format has been employed, where instead of a traditional linear argument: A + B = Conclusion, this work follows a cartographical route - instead of traditional thesis chapters, there are scholarly journal articles. Whilst related, these papers each concentrate on different threads of the problem that we currently call &quotAttention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder". Connected by short linking summaries, they constitute a cartographic survey utilising Foucault's (1977; 2003b) notion of a discursive/technological grid to examine &quotADHD" as a discursive formation and schooling as a system of formation of &quotdisorderly" objects.
