This book invites the reader to think education against, beyond and without the school and its paraphernalia. To think about ‘education’, rather than schooling, and what kind of education is relevant to and needed now in the complex, difficult and dangerous world we live in.

This book advances the argument that schools are no place for education and reimagines education without the school. The authors describe this as a worrying and frightening place in which we must ?unthink? education, recognising it as fragile and contingent on many of our modernist certainties about learning. This unthinking is in itself a means of escape and self-formation. Drawing on ideas from social theory and other social sciences, the book explores starting points and signposts towards a new vision of education. It will be of interest to scholars and graduate students of alternative education, schooling, educational policy and philosophy and the sociology of education.
