What is the future of Philosophy of education? Or as many of scholars and thinkers in this final 'future-focused' collective piece from the philosophy of education in a new key Series put it, what are the futures--plural and multiple--of the intersections of 'philosophy' and 'education?'

Nakagawa, Yoshifumi; Payne, Phillip G. – Educational Philosophy and Theory, 2019
The always vexed relationships between philosophy, theory, methodology, empirical work and their representations and legitimations have been thrown into chaos with the belated acknowledgement of the Anthropocene. Unsurprisingly, traditional Western thought may have been complicit, given its underlying anthropocentric assumptions and humanist…

Strom, Kathryn J.; Martin, Adrian D. – Studying Teacher Education, 2013
As two teachers/researchers committed to the values of social justice in the classroom, we are deeply disturbed by the explicit and implicit ways that our education system, operating through neoliberalism, reproduces the inequalities of larger society. To problematize and deterritorialize dominant neoliberal notions of schooling, education,…

As an educator, it is always interesting to learn and employ new and creative ways of thinking and methods in teaching. However, the application of these new ideas in our classrooms needs more examination for better ways of implementation. Since the postmodernist theory and approaches have been practiced in education in the past few decades, the…

Peer reviewedSugai, George – Behavioral Disorders, 1998
This response to "Behavior Disorders: A Postmodern Perspective" (Elkind) suggests that the field must increase dependence on scientific data and theories to guide educational policies and research and assume responsibility for the impact of decisions on the lives of students and families. The perils of assuming a postmodern perspective are…

Peer reviewedElkind, David – Behavioral Disorders, 1998
This rejoinder to critiques of "Behavior Disorders: A Postmodern Perspective" stresses that postmodernism is not a rejection of empiricism or of positivism but does place theory and research in a historical context. It is a critique of the exaggerations and abuses of research and theory but not research and theory themselves. (CR)

Trifonas, Peter – Palgrave Macmillan, 2005
This book looks at the implications of educational practices in communities that are differentiated by issues of language, culture, and technology.
