Leonard J. Waks – Education and Culture, 2024
Important works in the Dewey corpus -- particularly those discussing the theory and practice of art and aesthetic education, prepared from 1896 through 1900 while Dewey was working out the plan for the University's Laboratory School--remain virtually unstudied. When interpreting or building upon Dewey's theory of art and art education, scholars…

Betzabe Torres Olave – Review of Education, Pedagogy & Cultural Studies, 2024
In this article, I think with trains to reflect about education, its rhythms, trajectories, and the possibilities that "attentive looking through windows" can afford us in moving toward just futures. Using two of Alfonsina Storni's poems, the yellow train of "Cien años de soledad" as well as educational philosophy, I argue that…

Jesse Albert Torenbosch; Jonathan Darling; Joke Vandenabeele – Ethics and Education, 2024
Following the work of Jacques Derrida and modern educational authors, this article argues that Western education currently holds mainstream formal educational practices as the standard by which all other educational practices should be judged. This is a problem because this positions every other educational practice, including non-formal education…

Michalinos Zembylas – Journal of Moral Education, 2024
The goal of this paper is to explore arguments about the moral (in)appropriateness of counter-contempt as a justified moral and pedagogical response to racist contempt. Drawing on debates for and against contempt in moral philosophy, the paper suggests a "contextual" approach to contempt that pays attention to both the specifics of the…

Mark Piper – Ethics and Education, 2024
Kristján Kristjánsson is one of the most prominent neo-Aristotelian defenders of the view that flourishing is the primary aim of education. Although he supports most aspects of Aristotle's theory, Kristjánsson argues that Aristotle failed to capture the significance of awe for human flourishing. Kristjánsson seeks to remedy this deficiency. While…

Yosuke Hirota – History of Education, 2024
This article examines the Japanese historical concept of nature in early childhood education and care (ECEC). Through modernisation, Japan was infused with Anglo-European philosophy. However, Japan's pre-modern concept of nature differed from that of the West or modern Japan and latently affected the Japanese modern educational system. The concept…

Gormley, Kevin – Routledge Research in Education Policy and Politics, 2023
This book critically analyses how cultural and educational policies construct creativity through a range of concepts and compares this against the open and expansive idea of creativity as experienced by individuals in society more broadly. The book draws on empirical data, case-study examples, and ethnographic motifs to identify the discursive…

Dahlbeck, Johan – Educational Philosophy and Theory, 2023
This paper addresses the rift between the teacher's sense of self as a causal agent and the experience of being in lack of control in the classroom, by way of Hans Vaihinger's philosophy of 'as if.' It is argued that understanding agential control in terms of a valuable educational fiction--a practical (ethical) fiction in Vaihinger's…

Lai, Yu-Yi; Lai, Karyn – Educational Philosophy and Theory, 2023
Exemplarism -- the view that exemplary people, whom we admire, are the bearers of our moral concepts -- presents considerable challenges to the (widely-assumed) place of moral "theory" in how we learn to be moral. Exemplarism has been garnered by Amy Olberding to articulate a Confucian approach to moral learning. This paper extends…

Säfström, Carl Anders – Policy Futures in Education, 2023
This article suggests a sophistical autonomous practice in response to Platonian Aristotelian philosophy's domination over education. It shows the dangers of empty education in which education is reduced to schooling the perfect citizen in the image of a perfect state. An example is given in which schooling in empty education is reduced to a tool…

Tervo, Juuso – Policy Futures in Education, 2023
Many arguments for education's autonomy put forward a repeated yet undefined claim that there is an identifiable, dividing line between education and its outside, and that it is within the distinct contours of "the educational" where the nomos of its autonomy lies. Approaching this claim from a literary perspective, I conduct a critical…

Torenbosch, Jesse Albert; Vandenabeele, Joke – Studies in Philosophy and Education, 2023
Many modern discussions on Vocational education and Training (VET) only consider it's goals in terms of the labor market or social inclusion. This article argues that vocations are an important contribution to the common good of society as whole, and not only a method of securing laborers. In order to acknowledge this contribution there needs to…
