Overview

This volume covers the application of phenomenology not only to psychology and psychiatry but precisely to pedagogy and the training of educators. It fills a gap in offering a unique resource which combines both theory and practice. Through an interdisciplinary means, this book provides new theories and applications of phenomenological pedagogy at all levels of education and with a unique focus on autism and special educational needs. It proposes a shift in the paradigm and treatment: from a neuro-cognitivist approach at the present core of most pedagogical theories to a phenomenological and enactivist perspective on subjectivity.  It appeals to students, researchers, and practitioners working in phenomenology, psychology and education.
