Jacques Ranciere: Education, Truth, Emancipation

By Charles Bingham and Gert J.J. Biesta

Book Overview

" Winner - AERA 2011 Outstanding Book Award

Jacques Ranci re: Education, Truth, Emancipation demonstrates the importance of Ranci re's work for educational theory, and in turn, it shows just how central Ranci re's educational thought is to his work in political theory and aesthetics. Charles Bingham and Gert Biesta illustrate brilliantly how philosophy can benefit from Ranci re's 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 Ranci re himself, this book is a must-read for scholars of social theory and all who profess to educate."
