Check out the book being discussed on the New Books Network podcast here"With Obstinate Education, Biesta wrote an intellectually heeft Biesta een intellectueel, uitdagend boek geschreven. Het boek daagt uit ‘door’ te ‘denken’, niet alleen de pedagogische kwesties die Biesta in zijn boek aansnijdt en de pedago[1]giek die hij daarbij voor het voetlicht brengt, maar ook kwesties die niet besproken worden, maar er wel nauw mee samenhangen. Ik denk hier bijvoorbeeld aan de relatie tussen overheid en onderwijs [...] Ik raad het boek van harte aan."
Gert Biesta, PhD (1992), Leiden University, is Professor of Public Education at Maynooth University, Ireland and Professor for Education at the University of Humanistic Studies, the Netherlands. He writes about educational theory and policy and the philosophy of social research.
