Noel L. Clemente – Ethics and Education, 2024
Intellectual character education has been primarily expressed in terms of educating for intellectual virtues (EFIV). This aim of teaching intellectual virtues has received some challenges, such as how it fails to articulate adequate action guidance through exemplarist pedagogy, and how it neglects the pervasiveness of intellectual vice among…

Niclas Lindström – Ethics and Education, 2024
This study explores the practical implications of the paradox of moral education, focusing on how Swedish social study teachers (civics, geography, history, and religious education) navigate conflicting responsibilities to convey values and facilitate critical thinking when addressing controversial issues in their classrooms. Through qualitative…

Kotsonis, Alkis – Ethics and Education, 2021
My aim in this paper is to challenge the neo-Aristotelian tradition, currently dominant in contemporary theories of virtue education, by proposing the Platonic pedagogical methodology for virtue cultivation as a worthy alternative to the Aristotelian theory of education. I highlight that, in contrast to Aristotle's limited remarks concerning…

Dahlbeck, Johan – Ethics and Education, 2022
To what extent should teachers promote the view from nowhere as an ideal to strive for in education? To address this question, I will use Mark Twain's The Mysterious Stranger as an example, illustrating the stakes involved when the view from nowhere is taken to be an attainable educational ideal. I will begin this essay by offering a description…

Lewin, David – Ethics and Education, 2020
Where do a child's morals come from? Interactions with other human beings provide arguably the primary contexts for moral development: family, friends, teachers and other people. It is the artistic products of human activity that this essay considers: literature, film, art, music. Specifically, I will consider some philosophical issues concerning…

Sergei Talanker – Ethics and Education, 2024
Our survey of literature on moral dilemmas in teaching reveals that scholars declare the need to unequivocally resolve them yet refrain from doing so. This phenomenon is rooted in falure to distinguish between the different moral conflicts. The methods of resolving abstract hypothetical dilemmas, advocated but not implemented by the scholars, are…

Frank, Jeff – Ethics and Education, 2021
This essay has several related goals. The first is to contribute to the philosophy of education literature on Cora Diamond while introducing the work of her sister, Julie Diamond, to the field. I introduce Julie Diamond's work by connecting it to the work of John Dewey, and a secondary goal of the paper is to test lines of connection between Dewey…

Frank, Jeff; Laverty, Megan – Ethics and Education, 2021
This paper introduces the special section on Cora Diamond's significance for education and educators. The introduction is meant to be the beginning of a conversation, and--to that end--the special section editors suggest lines of connections that philosophers of education might draw between their work and the work of Cora Diamond. Their list is…

Zembylas, Michalinos – Ethics and Education, 2021
Should educators encourage students to learn moral outrage in teaching about social (in)justice? If moral outrage is a catalyst for social change, to what extent can educators nurture this moral and political emotion in the classroom? These questions are at the heart of this essay. The aim is not to take sides for or against using moral outrage in…

Gatens, Moira – Ethics and Education, 2020
In the Preface to Part Four of the "Ethics," Spinoza offers the reader an "exemplar" of human nature. However, Spinoza does not conceive of human nature as a universal in which each human being participates, simply by virtue of being human. Rather, each human being is conceived as singular. Thriving individual lives assume…

Nele Kuhlmann – Ethics and Education, 2025
In the context of the rise of right-wing populism, new debates on democratic education have emerged which focus on the role of affect. The paper puts forth a postfoundational perspective on affects and emotion, proposing an analysis of how democratic education practices mobilize certain feelings. In the empirical analysis of argumentation…

Mollvik, Lia – Ethics and Education, 2021
The concept of human dignity arguably has great relevance to education as it is mentioned in several human rights and education policy documents on the national and international level, providing their moral justification. However, when the concept is discussed within philosophical research, it is often seen as consisting of two different…

Leiviskä, Anniina – Ethics and Education, 2020
Gert Biesta criticises deliberative models of democracy and education for being based on an understanding of democracy as a 'normal' order, which involves certain 'entry conditions' for democratic participation. As an alternative, Biesta introduces the idea of democracy as 'disruption' and the associated subjectification conception of education…

Merzifonluoglu, Samet; Hamarat, Ercenk – Ethics and Education, 2022
There is growing interest in epistemic injustice and its connection to education. However, the relation between social studies and epistemic injustice has not yet been adequately explored and this topic has been given insufficient attention by social studies educators. But it is regarded as an important resource for students who are socially…

Croce, Michel – Ethics and Education, 2020
This paper takes issue with the exemplarist strategy of fostering virtue development with the specific goal of improving its applicability in the context of education. I argue that, for what matters educationally, we have good reasons to endorse a "liberal" account of moral exemplarity. Specifically, I challenge two key assumptions of…
