This book introduces readers to the writing of the French philosopher, Jacques Rancière, and discusses the uptake of his work in education.

The first part of the book introduces Rancière's interventions on democracy and politics, art and aesthetics, emancipation, and education. The second part of the book analyses how Rancière's writing has been taken up in considerations of emancipatory, democratic, and political education, art(s) education, and innovative work in educational research. The final part of the book appraises the significance of Rancière’s writing for education and considers the difficult task of applying his insights to educational scholarship.
