Education, Crisis and Philosophy : Ubuntu within Higher Education Paperback / softback
by Yusef (Stellenbosch University, South Africa) Waghid
Part of the New Directions in the Philosophy of Education series
Paperback / softback
Description
This book brings together a discussion of educational philosophy, nihilism and humanity to rethink education in times of crisis, with a particular focus on teaching and learning in universities.
The book argues that an educational crisis manifests when the value of academic institutions come under attack, looking closely at how higher education practices have been devalued.
The book is situated in the context of three intertwined crises; the coronavirus pandemic, economic decline resulting in poverty and unemployment, and the crisis of human migration.
It questions what the role of education is, or ought to be, in times of crisis and how our humanity ought to be cultivated during such turbulent times.
This novel and timely text will be of great interest to researchers, academics and postgraduate students in the fields of educational philosophy, higher education and international education.
