Philosophy of education has an honored place in the history of
Western philosophical thought. Its questions are as vital now, both
philosophically and practically, as they have ever been. In recent
decades, however, philosophical thinking about education has
largely fallen off the philosophical radar screen. Philosophy of
education has lost intimate contact with the parent discipline to a
regrettably large extent--to the detriment of both.
The Oxford Handbook of Philosophy of Education is intended to serve
as a general introduction to key issues in the field, to further
the philosophical pursuit of those issues, and to bring philosophy
of education back into closer contact with general philosophy.
Distinguished philosophers and philosophers of education, most of
whom have made important contributions to core areas of philosophy,
turn their attention in these 28 essays to a broad range of
philosophical questions concerning education. The chapters are
accessible to readers with no prior exposure to philosophy of
education, and provide both surveys of the general domain they
address, and advance the discussion in those domains in original
and fruitful ways. Together their authors constitute a new wave of
general philosophers taking up fundamental philosophical questions
about education--the first such cohort of outstanding general
philosophers to do so (in English) in a generation.
