British Friluftsliv: An alternative direction for British Outdoor Education

A critical review of British outdoor education and Norwegian Friluftsliv.This book explores the issues and controversies of modern outdoor education within Britain today, it also gives a critical analysis of Norwegian Friluftsliv, and how it could be transferred and used within the UK to combat the current ailments as I see them, within modern outdoor education. This book discusses the effect that the media, technology, risk perception, fear and instant gratification are having on outdoor education in the UK today, and dives into the history of the illusive Friluftsliv and critiques its very underpinnings. It then builds to a conclusion, where the writing turns to how best to operate Friluftsliv here in the UK and the facilitation styles and models that will best support its integration into the British outdoor education system.
