{"product_id":"9780415704373","title":"Between Truth And Freedom: Rousseau And Our Contemporary Political And Educational Culture (New Directions In The Philosophy Of Education)","description":"In Rousseau's classic Emile he sets out the ideas of education of the whole person, and how reasoning, and the development of character and moral sense are integral to the education of a person as a whole, providing them with the self-mastery and virtue to tackle any issue that faces them. This book extends and expands the ground that Rousseau explores in Emile and considers the less well known of his publications to provide and analysis of Rousseau's position on the politics of education, public education, the state as an educator and the education of the family, arguing that his thoughts on the field were much wider and more sophisticated than the ideas presented in Emile imply. In this book Kenneth Wain also draws on the thinking of the contemporary philosophers Alasdair MacIntyre and Richard Rorty to consider challenges for the worlds of politics and education and the tension between two apparently contrary demands it made on modern societies and their political and educational systems, to socialize individuals into loyal and productive citizens and, at the same time, to educate them into being individuals or, in the words of Rorty, teaching indivduals the value of the truth of their society, as well as the freedom to be individual. This new consideration of the work of a classic figure in the field of philosophy of education will appeal to researchers and academics a like as well as those interested in political education, and the philosophy of education.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eAuthor: \u003c\/b\u003eKenneth Wain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/b\u003eRoutledge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/b\u003eDec 01, 2014\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eNumber of Pages: \u003c\/b\u003e186 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eLanguage: \u003c\/b\u003eEnglish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eBinding: \u003c\/b\u003eHardcover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-10: \u003c\/b\u003e0415704375\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/b\u003e9780415704373\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49113519227185,"sku":"9780415704373","price":246.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/8215\/8385\/files\/9780415704373.jpg?v=1714581340","url":"https:\/\/www.recomparo.com\/products\/9780415704373","provider":"ReComparo.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
