3. 2. Equality, Uniqueness, Renewal : Conversations to Reimagine Pedagogical Action, with Jacques Rancière and Adriana Cavarero

   Författare :Cathrine Ryther; Agnieszka Bron; Maarten Simons; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; philosophy of education; educational foundations; limits of education; pedagogical action; renewal; conversation; equality; uniqueness; freedom; Jacques Rancière; Adriana Cavarero; Wilhelm Sjöstrand; pedagogik; Education;

   Sammanfattning : Sjöstrand (1970a) called the relation between equality and freedom a fundamental pedagogical problem because it shapes assumptions about how pedagogical action affects renewal—or, the issue of human becoming in an always already populated context. In this dissertation I reimagine Sjöstrand’s pedagogical problem, replacing the terms of equality and freedom with Rancière’s concept of equality and Cavarero’s concept of uniqueness, in order to consider the consequences for (a) the connection between pedagogical action and renewal, and (b) the image(s) of renewal that pedagogical action might prioritize.
