Abstract
SUMMARY This article begins with a historical introduction to Swedish teacher education and continues with an investigation concerning a new teacher education that started in 1988 for primary and middle-school teachers, educated to teach grade 1-7 'grundskolla¨rare'. This teacher education is analysed and interpreted through paradigms constructed out of To¨rnebohm's paradigm concept idea. Four paradigms are used: the traditional craft paradigm, the academic, the progressive, critical-social and the personalistc paradigm. The article ends with a short discussion concerning teacher education regulated and controlled by politicians and the problems for teacher educators.
