Anne-Mari Souto

My expertise is in the sociology of education, career guidance and critical race and whiteness studies. Issues related to social differences and inequalities in education and career guidance are my main interests. I have researched young people’s educational choices and transitions, school drop-outs and career guidance in primary education. I have also focused on racism in different educational institutions and in relations between pupils/ students.

My teaching and research work is guided by the ambition to explore how guidance can promote to social justice and combat gendered, ethnicised and racialised segregation in education and the labour market. Besides my teaching and research work, I supervise doctoral theses.

The title of Docent, University of Turku, the field of Sociology of education, especially research on educational pathways and and career guidance.
