Jacques Ranciere: Education, Truth, Emancipation by Charles Bingham
Demonstrates the importance of Ranciere's educational thought and how educational theory needs to be informed by his philosophical project. This book illustrates how philosophy can benefit from Ranciere's particular way of thinking about education, and offer a provocative account of the relationship between education, truth, and emancipation.
"By showing how the relationship between education and emancipation can be thought of as political, rather than psychological or sociological, Bingham and Biesta put into question many received educational ideas, for example about what 'school improvement' means and what is involved in 'inclusive pedagogy'The book's argument and experimentations with concepts such as 'police', 'politics' and 'disagreement' vividly portray the relevance of Ranciere's thought for contemporary education practice, policy-making and philosophy." - Caroline Pellatier, Institute of Education, University of London, UK"
