Product Details
Overview
In the World Library of Educationalists series, international experts themselves compile career-long collections of what they judge to be their finest pieces - extracts from books, key articles, salient research findings, major theoretical and/practical contributions - so the world can read them in a single manageable volume. Readers will be able to follow the themes and strands of their work and see their contribution to the development of a field.
Michael Peters has spent the last 30 years researching, thinking and writing about some of the key and enduring issues in education. He has contributed over 50 books (authored, co-authored and edited) and 500 articles to the field. In Educational Philosophy and Politics, Michael Peters brings together over 20 of his key writings in one place, including chapters from his best-selling books and articles from leading journals. Starting with a specially written Introduction, which gives an overview of Michael's career and contextualises his selection, the chapters are divided into 5 sections:
* Wittgenstein Studies
* Philosophical Critique of Modernity
* French Poststructuralism
- Jean-Francois Lyotard
- Foucault & Deleuze
- Derrida
* American Pragmatism
- Rorty
- Cavell
- Philosophy and racism
* Applied educational philosophy
Through this book, readers can follow the themes and strands that Michael Peters has written about for over three decades and clearly see his important contribution to the field of education.
