EDUCATIONAL EXPLANATIONS Educational Explanations is a comprehensive study of the main philosophical questions that confront empirical educational researchers. The book outlines the sense in which empirical educational research pursues truth and sets out and defends an account of its task as the offering of explanations for the many educational problems that claim our attention. The book goes on to look at the criteria for high quality research, the relationship between different methodological approaches and the scope and limits of intervention studies. At all stages detailed examples are presented to make the argument clearer. A distinctive feature of the book is the presentation of four detailed case studies, over four chapters, of influential educational research programmes that not only examine what they have achieved, but emphasise the conceptual issues that researchers are confronted with as they seek to provide explanations. The book goes on to examine the impact of empirical educational research on educational practice and on the practice of teachers in particular.

Deutschland investiert Milliarden in prestigeträchtige Leuchtturmprojekte und Pseudo-Veränderungen – und ist trotzdem digital weit abgeschlagen. Das liegt auch daran, dass Digitalisierung nicht als Transformation verstanden wird: Es geht eben nicht darum, Gegenstände oder Strukturen einfach ins Digitale zu überführen. Transformationsprozesse müssen die Gegenstände und Strukturen selbst hinterfragen und wandlungsfähig sein. Und selbst da, wo man dies erkannt hat, verhindern Missverständnisse die Entwicklung. Digitale Transformation ist ein komplexer Vorgang, der nicht dann abrupt endet, wenn irgendein neuer Dienst eingeführt wurde. Dieser Essay stellt heraus, dass isolierte Blicke auf Gesellschaft oder Technik nicht zielführend sind, und entlarvt dabei stets bemühte Buzzwords und die wichtigsten Denkfehler.

This book is a philosophical essay on the sun. It draws on Georges Bataille’s theories of the solar economy and solar violence and demonstrates their relevance to a world affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and climate change. The sun, which, since Antiquity, has played an essential role in our utopian imaginations, is the ultimate source of energy, both productive and destructive. According to Georges Bataille, its infinite generosity can be taken as the model for human societies, which suggests an alternative to the capitalist economy with its infinite expansion, colonization, and disastrous consequences on the cosmic scale. Taking a step from solar economy to solar politics, Timofeeva locates the grounds for it in solidarity with nature, treated neither as a master nor as a slave, but as a comrade. The book will appeal to students, academics, artists, and other readers interested in the philosophy of nature, ecology, social and political theory, postcolonial and decolonial studies, and the humanities generally.
