| Abstract
|
:
|
Scholars of education and philosophy show how education from a humanist perspective focuses on developing rationality, autonomy, empowerment, creativity, affections and a concern for humanity. They emphasize the particular problem of linking autonomy and humanity. Among their topics are a humanist perspective on moral development and citizenship education, the philosophy of ubuntu and education in South Africa, India as a case study showing the significance of humanist education in developing countries, exploring normative professionalism in humanistic teaching practice, and education dilemmas for humanists facing the challenges of multiculturalism in Flanders.
