Kos, Živa (author)

The ten chapters of the monograph offer an insight into the field of teacher education from different standpoints of teacher educators themselves. Addressing the different national contexts and national challenges covered in the monograph (Finland, Australia, England, South Africa and South Ameri - ca), the authors use conceptualisations of K. Popper, M. Foucault, P. Bourdieu, G. Biesta and many others and enable productive continuity of the discussions put forth in the monograph. This additionally emphasises one of the leading arguments of the book: the need to strengthen cooperation between the field of teacher education and policy concerning teacher education reforms as part of wider social processes with political, economic and social implications.
