Professor Judith SuissaProfessor Emerita of Philosophy of Education, UCL Institute of Education, United KingdomEmail: j.suissa@ucl.ac.ukProfilePublicationsExpertiseProfileJudith Suissa is a philosopher of education whose work explores the intersection between political ideas and educational practice. She is particularly concerned to challenge the narrow focus on state schooling characteristic of so much educational philosophy, theory and research, and to explore the underlying political and moral assumptions of pedagogical relationships outside institutional forms of education. These include parent-child relationships, educational experiments that challenge the state system, and social movements.ResearchPublications Suissa, J. (2006).
