The Revolution of 25 April 1974 in Portugal put an end to a forty-eight year old dictatorship, opening the country to democracy. The purpose of this article is to describe education reform from the standpoint of a country that experienced a major political transition and had to start from the very beginning to devise an education policy. Rather than merely describing the organization of the Portuguese education system, I present a condensed analysis of Portuguese education policy, as I view it, making use of indicators of the nature of an education system proposed by D'Hainaut (1980).

Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. ; The United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and the European Union's strategies both set goals for solving environmental challenges faced by societies and communities. As part of solving these challenges, both the UN and the EU stress the development of entrepreneurial and innovative education. Teacher education plays a crucial role in these efforts, since teachers and teacher educators have a significant impact on educating citizens far into the future. In this research, we studied how Nordic (Finnish, Swedish, and Icelandic) primary teacher education curricula involve entrepreneurial, sustainable, and pro-environmental education. For this study, the authors analyzed the B.Ed. curricula of three academic teacher education institutions in Spring 2021. We used qualitative content analysis as our research method. According to the results, all three curricula incorporated both entrepreneurship education and sustainable development to some extent, although often not very explicitly. Given the urgency of problems such as global climate change, the educational goals and contents in these curricula related to entrepreneurial education and sustainable development are very limited. The idea of integrating environmental/sustainable and entrepreneurship education could be promoted in the future more explicitly, with these interdisciplinary educational themes emphasised more strongly in the curricula and education policies. ; Peer reviewed

Critical doctoral education? Crossing boundaries between different types of knowledge, different formal positions and institutional settings, and between political action and analytical reflection. The amount of graduating doctoral students have grown significantly over the last decades. PhD's are increasingly being employed in many types of jobs in various sectors. For many universities doctoral education is an important strategic investment and a way of both recruiting talented researchers and of engaging with external partners in private and public organisations. Doctoral education is organised differently at universities, regulated by national laws and international standards. Also, whether and how doctoral education is practiced in line with the universities' pedagogical traditions for bachelor- and master education varies. For universities like the CEA partners that "focus upon student-centered learning, critical thinking, interdisciplinary teaching and research, and social engagement" it is relevant to reflect on how these traditions and ambitions are met in doctoral education.
