RESEARCH

Gert Biesta is Professor of Education at the Institute of Education, University of Stirling, and Visiting Professor for Education and Democratic Citizenship at Örebro University, Sweden (since 2001) and Mälardalen University, Sweden (since 2006). He is editor-in-chief of Studies in Philosophy and Education, an international journal published by Springer Science+Business Media. He has a degree in Education (Philosophy and History of Education) from Leiden University, the Netherlands (Bachelor’s and Master’s – cum laude, 1987) and a degree in Philosophy (Philosophy of the Social Sciences) from Erasmus University, the Netherlands (Bachelor’s and Master’s – cum laude, 1989). He received his PhD in Education from Leiden University in 1992. From 1995-1997 he was a Spencer Post Doctoral Fellow with the National Academy of Education, USA. In 2004 he received an honorary doctorate from Uppsala University, Sweden, and in 2007 an honorary doctorate from Örebro University, Sweden.

 

A major focus of his research is the relationship between education and democracy. His theoretical work focuses on different ways of understanding democracy, democratisation and democratic education, with particular attention to questions about educational communication both at the micro-level of classroom interaction and the macro-level of intercultural communication. He takes inspiration from pragmatism (Dewey, Mead) and from Continental philosophy (Derrida, Levinas, Rancière) and from Continental and North American versions of critical pedagogy. He has also written about the philosophy and methodology of educational research, and the relationships between educational research, educational policy and educational practice. His empirical research focuses on democratic learning of young people and adults, with a particular emphasis on democratic learning in everyday settings, and on relationships between learning, identity and agency in the life-course (the Learning Lives project). He has a research interest in vocational education and lifelong learning, democratic conceptions of the learning society, learning theories and theories of education, the professional learning of teachers, and the civic role of Higher Education. He has received major funding for his research from the Economic and Social Research Council, and has also received research funding from the British Academy and the Spencer Foundation (USA).

 

He has published extensively journals, chapters and books. To date he has published 20 books, about 100 articles in refereed journals and about 75 bookchapters. His work has been published in English, Swedish, Dutch, German, Spanish, Russian and Romanian. Recent books include Derrida & Education (Routledge 2001; co-edited with Denise Egéa-Kuehne), Pragmatism and Educational Research (Rowman & Littlefield, 2003; co-authored with Nicholas C. Burbules); Beyond learning. Democratic education for a human future (Paradigm Publishers, 2006; a Swedish translation, Bortom lärandet: Demokratisk utbildning för en mänsklig framtid, was published by Studentlitteratur in 2006; a Danish translation will appear in 2009); Improving learning cultures in Further Education (Routledge; co-authored with David James); an English and a German version of George Herbert Mead’s Lectures on Philosophy of Education (co-edited with Daniel Tröhler; Verlag Julius Klinkhardt 2008; Paradigm Publishers 2008); Education, democracy and the moral life(Springer 2008; co-edited with Michael Katz ande Susan Verducci); Derrida, Deconstruction and the politics of pedagogy (Peter Lang 2009; co-authored with Michael A. Peters); Rethinking contexts for teaching and learning. Communities, activities and networks (Routledge, 2009; co-edited with Richard Edwards and Mary Thorpe).
