Description

Winner – AERA 2011 Outstanding Book Award Jacques Ranci√®re: Education, Truth, Emancipation demonstrates the importance of Ranci√®re’s work for educational theory, and in turn, it shows just how central Ranci√®re’s educational thought is to his work in political theory and aesthetics. Charles Bingham and Gert Biesta illustrate brilliantly how philosophy can benefit from Ranci√®re’s particular way of thinking about education, and go on to offer their own provocative account of the relationship between education, truth, and emancipation. Including a new essay by Ranci√®re himself, this book is a must-read for scholars of social theory and all who profess to educate.
