- Book 14 of 17: Knowledge and Space
This open access book explores the complex relationship between schooling as a set of practices embedded in educational institutions and their specific spatial dimensions from different disciplinary perspectives. It presents innovative empirical and conceptual research by international scholars from the fields of social geography, pedagogy, educational and social sciences in Germany, the United Kingdom, France, Czechia, Hungary, Austria, Switzerland, Norway and Canada. The book covers a broad range of topics, all examined from a spatial perspective: the governance of schooling, the transition processes of and within national school systems, the question of small schools in peripheral areas as well as the embeddedness of schooling in broader processes of social change. Transcending disciplinary boundaries, the book offers deep insights into current theoretical debates and empirical case studies within the broad research field encompassing the complex relationship between education and space.

Most recently, he has researched the role of education in local transformation processes, especially in rural and peripheral areas. Holger Jahnke has used his studies of geography, French, and Italian to teach and carry out research in several European countries as well as in Ghana, Colombia, and Bangladesh.

Her research interests include the geography of education, population and urban geography, as well as time geography associated with mobility and multi-local living. She is particularly interested in the meaning that small schools have for communities in which they are located.

She is currently chief editor of the journal Berichte. Geographie und Landeskunde and serves as board member in two German non-university research institutes in regional science.
