| Description: |
Writing for educators and education leaders, Cunningham shows that combining a philosophy of pragmatism with thinking about education as systems can illuminate challenges in contemporary schooling and provide practical solutions for creating a democratic education. |
| Synopsis: |
Systems Theory for Pragmatic Schooling combines John Dewey's conception of the nature of nature and philosophy of experience with contemporary systems theory and concepts related to complexity to argue for reconceptualising the purposes of schooling to focus on the development of the unique potential for a diverse democracy society. |
