Produktbeschreibung
Education is a social practice that poses ethical questions of policy and practice at every level and at almost every turn - what we teach, how we teach, how we organise educational provision, how we research it, who controls it, and what principles drive policy nationally and internationally. This collection is rooted in the author's experience in the education system nationally and internationally over half a century, and reflects both the educational history of this period and the author's experience as a teacher, parent, school governor, teacher trainer, educational researcher, senior leader in higher education, and advisor to governments in many parts of the world. It is, then, historically located, but the approach to ethical questions is primarily in the tradition of analytic philosophy, and applied and situated ethics.

He has been advisor at Ministerial level in countries, including Ethiopia, Vietnam. Iran and most recently Mongolia and Kazakhstan. Throughout this time, he has maintained his writing in philosophy of education, reflecting in particular on the ethical issues that this experience has raised.
