Thank you for this paper. I am curious: why did you chose to contrast "education" and "learning"? After all, the groups you studied are "home education neigborhood groups" :).

If "education" has been institutionalized and commodified, why not criticize this specific historical process, rather than "education" as a term. Arguably, little will change by replacing it with the term "learning", which is no less entangled in the dynamics of late capitalism (think "lifelong learning").

What are your thoughts on this?
