The Cambridge Handbook of Ethics and Education cover

If education both sustains and transforms society, ethics identifies emerging moral dilemmas and generates new possible pathways.

This Handbook comprehensively explores ethics in the fields of philosophy and education from a variety of cultural and intellectual traditions. Its central aim is to democratise scholarship in ethics and education by including diverse voices, ideas, and places.This Handbook provides an interdisciplinary discussion on the role and complexity of ethics in education. Its central aim is to democratise scholarship by highlighting diverse voices, ideas, and places. It is organised into three sections, each examining ethics from a different perspective: ethics and education historically; ethics within institutional practice, and emerging ethical frameworks in education. Important questions are raised and discussed, such as the role of past ethical traditions in contemporary education, how educators should confront ethical dilemma, how schools should be organised to serve all children, and how pluralism, democracy, and technology impact ethics in education. It offers new insights and opportunities for renewal in the complex and often contentious task of ethics and education.
