Gender Issues and Philosophy Education

Markus Tiedemann is professor for philosophy didactics and ethics at the Technical University of Dresden, co-editor of the ZS for philosophy and ethics didactics and, together with Bettina Bussmann, chairman of the forum for philosophy and ethics didactics.

Bettina Bussmann is Associate Professor for Philosophy Didactics at the University of Salzburg and, together with Markus Tiedemann, she chairs the Forum for Didactics of Philosophy and Ethics.

With this volume a gap in the philosophical didactics is closed. A historical section initially introduces authors who have determined the gender discourse and at the same time a critical discussion. This is followed by an overview of sexual and gender diversity, its basics and differentiations. Theoretical papers then deal with the relevance of gender research for the self-understanding of philosophical education. Finally, practice-specific contributions demonstrate how topics and aspects of the gender problem can be prepared for different age groups and school types.
