Winner - AERA 2011 Outstanding Book Award Jacques Rancire:
Education, Truth, Emancipation demonstrates the importance of
Rancires work for educational theory, and in turn, it shows just
how central Rancires educational thought is to his work in
political theory and aesthetics. Charles Bingham and Gert Biesta
illustrate brilliantly how philosophy can benefit from Rancires
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
Rancire himself, this book is a must-read for scholars of social
theory and all who profess to educate.
This book is a collective statement about a new approach to
education - the pedagogy of relation. After revisiting a number of
existing conversations, the authors bring together several
theoretical traditions under the umbrella of the pedagogy of
relation. This book is an appeal to develop a common frame of
reference for educational approaches based on the primacy of
relations in education. The authors try to understand human
relations rather than educational processes, behaviours, methods,
curriculum, etc. The authors also examine the dangers that a
pedagogy of relations may present, and the implications such a
pedagogy may have for curriculum and educational policy. The
promise of the pedagogy of relation is to offer a viable
alternative to dominating trends in educational thinking - trends
that emphasize control over teacher and student behaviour as the
main way of achieving excellence.

Has truth become a casualty of America's increasingly caustic and
volatile political culture? Truth in the Public Sphere seeks to
understand the significance of truth for the everyday world of
human communication. To this end, this book explores the place of
truth in several facets of the public sphere: language, ethics,
journalism, politics, media, and art. Featuring an international
group of contributors from across the humanities and social
sciences, this collection is a definitive supplement to theoretical
debates about the meaning and status of truth.
