This book responds to the need for new ways of defining the aims and forms of education, in an age that has seen the ideals of progress and growth lead the planet and its inhabitants to the brink of extinction. Arguing that contemporary ideas of performance and accountability counter "the heart" of education, the book calls for a retuning of education that encourages the younger generation to study objects and ideas for their own sake, rather than to appease established and conventional notions in society – therefore stepping into a common space of reflection and study. The chapters examine why and how we educate, and offer the alternative of engaging with educational questions, not determined by the logic of progress and growth but with an objective of creating a relation to the world around us. Using the works of Hannah Arendt combined with the tradition of Allgemeine Pädagogik to argue for a new conception of Bildung, the book encourages a method that emphasises outrospection over introspection. Ultimately questioning modern-day education, the book redirects and retunes education away from being wholly concerned with achievement and growth, and will therefore be of interest to students, researchers and academics in the fields of philosophy of education, education and curriculum studies, education policy and politics, and sociology of education.
Hermeneutics: Understanding Educational Experience
Far from something theoretical or abstract, the main concern of hermeneutics is to uncover what actually happens in human experience when understanding, in better or worse forms, occurs. Crucial insights are yielded for educators. Today, the heart of educational experience is routinely bypassed by preoccupations with measurable outcomes and rankings; preoccupations increasingly shared by policy-making in education and by educational research and evaluation. Hermeneutics provides imaginative and practical resources for remedying this loss: for revealing distortions and dogmas and for reclaiming the fullness of educational thought and action. The main ideas of hermeneutics are explored in the book and the more central concerns of educational practice are then reviewed in the light of these ideas.

Bildung zählt zu den Dauerproblemen, mit denen sich moderne Gesellschaften konfrontiert sehen. Entsprechend ausdifferenziert erweist sich auch die wissenschaftliche Thematisierung von Bildung. Der vorliegende Band geht von der Annahme aus, dass Bildung disziplinär nicht exklusiv zurechenbar ist, sondern nach einer inter- und transdisziplinären Orientierung von Theoriebildung und Forschung verlangt. Der vorliegende Band versammelt Beiträge aus unterschiedlichen Fächern und zielt darauf ab, verschiedene disziplinäre Perspektiven auf Bildung miteinander in ein Gespräch zu bringen. Ein besonderer Schwerpunkt liegt darauf, die Thematisierung von Bildung in Bezug auf ihre philosophischen Voraussetzungen zu diskutieren. Eine Bearbeitung der Frage, worin gelingende Bildung heute bestehen könnte und welche anthropologischen, gesellschaftstheoretischen sowie moralisch-ethischen Bezüge hierbei zu berücksichtigen wären, trägt nicht nur dazu bei, dass bestimmte Selbstverständlichkeiten in der Rede von Bildung erneut in Probleme transformiert werden. Sie bedeutet darüber hinaus, dass die Thematisierung dieses gesellschaftlichen Dauerproblems für das Erwägen möglicher Alternativen offen bleibt.
