O knihe

This collection brings together some of the most influential contemporary voices within the intellectual tradition of philosophy of education, each a recipient of the James and Helen Merritt Award for Distinguished Service to the discipline. The book offers readers a rich tapestry of perspectives that both honor the field's intellectual heritage and chart new territories for exploration. The contributors engage with questions of global responsibility, equity, spiritual growth, democratic renewal, and technological change–all while maintaining the philosophical rigor that has characterized this intellectual tradition since its inception. As educational systems worldwide face unprecedented challenges and transformations, these essays provide essential theoretical and philosophical frameworks for examining the fundamental questions that lie at the intersection of philosophy and educational practice.
