Opis

This book represents an exposition of ‘judicial pedagogies’ as a new concept, and discusses juridical-educational issues in detail, through an analysis of the educational claims and assumptions of judges’ decisions in the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR).

Recenzje

The author, an educational researcher interested in religions and values in schools, is simultaneously well-versed in legal issues. This allows him to approach with rigor the intersection of law and education, brilliantly treated in this book. I recommend it.

-Montserrat Gas-Aixendri, Professor of Law. International University of Catalunya, Barcelona, Spain

This book, on judicial pedagogies, is undoubtedly an important and innovative project, as Nigel Fancourt deals with a topic that is of great importance both on a national and international level. 

-Professor Martin Rothgangel, Department of Religious Education, University of Vienna, Austria.

With combined expertise in religious education, law, and educational research, the author is uniquely positioned to offer this lucid, incisive, and innovative account of judicial pedagogies. Indispensable for understanding relationships between the law, religion and schools, I highly recommend it.

-Dr Jo Fraser-Pearce, Associate Professor, Institute of Education, UCL, London, UK.
