Woandering towards places of imagination: Reflections through anarchism on the role of educators in early childhood education - Matteo Enrico Cattaneo - Bog

Here the potential of w/o/a/ndering, anarchism, and storytelling in Early Childhood Education is explored. Autoethnography is employed to blend personal experiences with theoretical insights, dissecting contemporary educational landscapes through philosophical traditions like anarchism and existentialism. Central to this exploration is the concept of w/o/a/ndering, symbolizing an interplay between wonder and wandering encouraging an open-ended quest for knowledge, imagination, belonging and meaning.

Matteo Enrico Cattaneo is a pedagogista and a scholar in philosophy of education at Södertörn University, Stockholm. His research interests include philosophy, in particular critical theory, existenstialism and anarchism, creative writing, storytelling and philosophy for children and community of inquiry.
