The Pedagogy of the Community of Philosophical Enquiry as Citizenship Education (eBook, ePUB)

Global Perspectives on Talking Democracy into Action

Redaktion: Forstenzer, Joshua; Boontinand, Vachararutai; Demissie, Fufy

Beschreibung

This edited volume combines reflections, methods, and experiences from a globally diverse group of scholars to investigate the meaning, value, and effectiveness of the pedagogy of the Community of Philosophical Enquiry (CoPE) - derived from or in conversation with Lipman and Sharp's Philosophy for Children (P4C) - in the context of civic education.

Maintaining that a rich diversity of voices is an important corrective to narrower academic discourses, the chapters in this book bring an array of scholarly thought from across the world working in various political and educational contexts to bear on a common question: How can CoPE help practitioners engage in civic education? The contributions draw on qualitative methods, philosophical literature, and practitioner case studies to explore the benefits, challenges, questions, and methods related to the use of CoPE for the sake of citizenship education in Thailand, Malaysia, Italy, Iceland, Israel, Greece, Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States of America. Ultimately, the book provides critical reflections and insights into the civic dimension of CoPE (and some CoPE-related practices) across a wide range of pedagogic, cultural, and political contexts.

Addressing the need for a touchstone publication on the interplay between CoPE and citizenship education, the book will be of interest to academics and postgraduate students interested in the philosophy of education, citizenship education, democratic education, and international and comparative education.

Rezensionen

"In the spirit of the Community of Philosophical Enquiry, this timely edited volume draws together wisdom from a diverse community of practice, offering ways to better, understand, implement, and advocate for the transformative pedagogy of CoPE in citizenship education and in education more broadly.

Dialogue about democracy and other complex moral and political issues is risky, but between them, the authors show their enormous experience and sensitivity when it comes to addressing the contested concepts and urgent challenges of our times. Alongside the risks, CoPE offers significant rewards, especially for those who accept the relationship between thinking well together and living well together. These rewards are explored in this

volume too. The result is a chorus of distinct voices, each crying out for a better world."

- Grace Lockrobin MA, FHEA, FRSA, Director of Philosophy and Education at SAPERE: Society for the Advancement of Philosophical Enquiry and Reflection in Education, UK.



"The Community of Philosophical Enquiry invites young people into philosophical dialogues that create democratic communities. It has great promise to address the crises of democracy, expand the role of the humanities, and shift conventional civic education to be more dialogic and philosophical. This book offers examples and perspectives from many parts of the world and attests to a vital new international movement."

- Peter Levine, Lincoln Filene Professor, Tufts University, USA.

"This is a book broader and deeper than it appears. On the surface, it is about an important family of civic pedagogies. But the authors, diverse in their disciplines and national settings, dig deeper in multiple directions. So the reader is invited to participate in, and learn from, a broad ranging conversation on the civic perspective.

It is a delight to see the intellectual community of civic studies to be progressing in ways exemplified by this book. I recommend it especially to those who think they are not interested in pedagogy. They have the most to learn from this book."

- Karol Edward Soltan, Associate Professor of Government and Politics at the University of Maryland at College Park, USA.
