Education for resonance
Technology usage in rural schools has benefits that can lead us to undercount the costs. While technology has proven useful in facilitating learning that is impossible to facilitate in rural schools, it has also been used indiscriminately. When we stop looking at rural schools solely through a deficit lens, we see that rural schools have powerful assets that are undermined through uncritical uses of technology. Rural schools are uniquely position…
Learning to leave good enough alone
John Dewey and Psychiatry
This article looks at the rare instances in Dewey’s collected works where psychiatry is addressed. Interestingly, Dewey draws on psychiatry as a way of demonstrating the flaws of excessively student-centered approaches to education. I take this to be of interest because it both clarifies Dewey’s philosophy of education while also suggesting that Dewey does not shy away from confronting truths disclosed by psychoanalysis. In fact, learning from ad…

Rethinking the Purposes of Schooling in a Global Pandemic
Failures of imagination
This article is a retrospective look at Chris Lebron’s essay ‘Thoughts on Racial Democratic Education and Moral Virtue’. I argue that Lebron’s work remains extremely relevant, both for its vision of antiracist education, and for the methodological questions it allows readers to contend with. As we are living in an age of increasing backlash to antiracist education, taking another look at Lebron’s essay also allows us to consider the reasonablenes…
Introduction
This paper introduces the special section on Cora Diamond’s significance for education and educators. The introduction is meant to be the beginning of a conversation, and—to that end—the special section editors suggest lines of connections that philosophers of education might draw between their work and the work of Cora Diamond. Their list is not meant to be exhaustive, but it is meant to suggest Diamond’s far-reaching significance for education …
Belonging in College
Interventions aimed at promoting student belonging on college campuses are important and should be promoted. Saying this, we must also understand their limitations. This article explores some of the limitations of belonging interventions through a discussion of philosopher John William Miller. In particular, this article suggests that belonging interventions don't do enough to create inclusive communities built on the practice of self-criticism a…
Core Practices and Philosophy of Education
Background/Context This paper is part of the special issue “Reimagining Research and Practice at the Crossroads of Philosophy, Teaching, and Teacher Education.” In it we respond to the question of what role there might be for philosophy of education in an era marked by the demand that students graduating from teacher education programs be immediately effective, with “effectiveness” often narrowly, if not wholly, defined by the results of student …
The adventure of responsive teaching
This essay has several related goals. The first is to contribute to the philosophy of education literature on Cora Diamond while introducing the work of her sister, Julie Diamond, to the field. I introduce Julie Diamond’s work by connecting it to the work of John Dewey, and a secondary goal of the paper is to test lines of connection between Dewey and Cora Diamond. Finally, by developing Cora and Julie Diamond’s thinking on teaching and the moral…
Against technology-mediated personalized learning
This paper aims to provide parents and others resources to resist technology-mediated personalized learning. To develop these resources and make the case against technology-mediated  personalized learning, I turn to the work of American philosophers Henry Bugbee and John William Miller
Sheldon Wolin, Jean Vanier and the present age
Neoliberalism is a force that seeks to commodify the time of education. Time must be productive. We rank journals and reward scholars who produce work published in those highly ranked journals. In the process of commodifying the work of scholarship, we lose time to the logics of neoliberalism. In search of this lost time, we need allies and resources that allow us to resist and reclaim that which replenishes value. This paper makes the case that …
Teaching is Oppositional
Sexual Orientation and Earnings
Most prior work on sexual orientation and labor market earnings has relied either on individual-level surveys with small samples of sexual minorities or on large samples of same-sex couples. For this study, the authors use a large individual-level data set from the United Kingdom that allows investigation of both constructs. They replicate the well-documented lesbian advantage and gay male penalty in couples-based comparisons but show that these …
Love and work
This article offers a close reading of the novel Stoner by John Williams. Stoner, and not the countless reports and jeremiads on teaching, helps us find what we are searching for: a way to live – and talk about – teaching in a dignified and artful way. We need to seek out voices that remind, recall and reveal teaching for the beautifully lovingly difficult work that it is. We need more voices like the one Williams provides in Stoner as we work at…
Mitigating Against Epistemic Injustice in Educational Research
In this article, I argue that Harvey Siegel correctly points out the limitations of epistemic diversity in educational research. Building from Siegel’s analysis, I argue that we need to move away from the language of epistemic diversity and to the language of epistemic injustice. Epistemic injustice allows us to do the work that epistemic diversity sets out to do—that is, creating more inclusive epistemic practices that lead to more accurate desc…

The Claims of Documentary
The documentary film is a popular curriculum tool, and the goal of this paper is to expand the educational significance of the documentary genre I argue that current understandings of this genre are limited and limiting, and offer an alternative perspective on the genre. This alternative will be built from Stanley Cavell's philosophy of education, in particular, his understanding of the role that 'representativeness' plays in teaching and learnin…
James Baldwin’s ‘Everybody’s Protest Novel’
The aim of this article is to establish—and explore—James Baldwin’s significance for educational theory. Through a close reading of ‘Everybody’s Protest Novel’, I show that Baldwin’s thinking is an important (if unrecognized) precursor to the work of Stanley Cavell and Cora Diamond, and is relevant to a number of problems that are educationally significant, in particular problems of race and racism.Keywords: Cora DiamondStanley Cavellphilosophy a…
Imagining Wittgenstein's Adolescent
This paper highlights the philosophical and educational significance of expression in Ludwig Wittgenstein's Philosophical Investigations. When the role of expression is highlighted, we will be better able to appreciate Stanley Cavell's insistence that: (i) Wittgenstein offers ways of responding to, though not a refutation of, the problem of skepticism concerning other minds, and (ii) Wittgenstein's writing style is an important aspect of his phil…
Gay Glass Ceilings
The UK Association of University Teachers conducted a 2000/01 survey of staff in six British universities to determine the experience of lesbian, gay and bisexual (LGB) employees holding academic and non‐academic appointments. We analyse the salaries and ranks held by LGB individuals, guided by a new model of the interaction of ‘tastes for discrimination’ and the decision to ‘come out’. We find no evidence that LGB staff suffer any disadvantage i…
Outside Offers and the Gender Pay Gap
Using a unique data source on academic economist labour market experiences, we explore gender, pay and promotions. In addition to earnings and productivity measures, we have information on outside offers and perceptions of discrimination. We find both a gender promotions gap and a within-rank gender pay gap. A driving factor may be outside offers: men receive more outside offers than women of comparable characteristics, and gain higher pay increa…

In Britain, about 7% of male employees and 10% of female employees are in temporary jobs. This proportion has been relatively stable over the 1990s. Using data from the British Household Panel Survey, we confirm the popular perception that temporary jobs

Ethnic and Other Minority Representation in UK Academic Economics
Using a survey questionnaire of academic economists in the United Kingdom, we examine the representation of ethnic and other minorities. We find that nearly 12% of UK‐employed academic economists are of ethnic minority origin. However, only 1% of the sample are UK‐born ethnic minority. Controlling for individual and workplace characteristics, there is no significant ethnic minority effect on academic rank. However, there is a significant negative…

Seniority, Earnings and Unions
This paper uses a new data source to investigate whether wages rise more with seniority in unionized or non-unionized workplaces. The data distinguish workers who are covered by incremental wage scales with automatic progression by seniority. For union workers with seniority scales, the union wage differential increases with seniority. This is not the case for union workers without seniority scales. Taking account of this heterogeneity, we are ab…

An Investment Model of Natural Resource Markets
Over the last decade there has been an increasing interest in natural resource economics. To some extent this can be ascribed to a general concern with the environment, but an important cause was the large price increases for resources in the early 1970s. The observed price jumps can be understood as a belated recognition of the scarcity of resources, but they can also be viewed as shortor medium-term phenomena arising from demand shocks and, in …

Unemployment
This text provides an up-to-date, comprehensive guide to the ecomonics of unemployment. Peter Sinclair studies three complementary aspects of unemployment: the statisitical and human facts; the explanatory theories; and the policies. The book examines the economic theories which have emerged from the United States, the United Kingdom and Europe, and includes a detailed survey of the characteristics of the unemployed. Sinclair explores the links b…

Globalization and Labor
Experts of various countries discuss the effects of globalization on labor markets. In theoretical and empirical terms, they analyze various issues of this subject, which has much relevance for economic policy. Globalization means moving towards an integrated world economy through more trade and intensified factor mobility. It implies that new regions like China and Eastern Europe are being integrated into the world economy. Therefore, globalizat…
