David Kennedy is Professor Emeritus of Educational Foundations at Montclair State University.

"Kennedy presents a complex psychohistory that combines a range of social science and historical perspectives. This text is dense, but its complex arguments critically illuminate a type of schooling practice that, by fostering democratic sensibilities and practice, could be a useful engine for social and cultural change." — CHOICE"Childhood, Philosophy, and Dialogical Education is a visionary work that urges readers to rethink education fundamentally. By blending philosophical inquiry with democratic ideals, Kennedy offers a model of education that respects and values children's voices, challenging the instrumentalist view of schooling prevalent today … By advocating for a philosophy of education that embraces the voices of children, Kennedy not only honors their potential but also presents a hopeful vision for the future of education. This book is essential reading for educators, philosophers, and anyone interested in the transformative power of dialogue in nurturing the next generation." — Etemad Newspaper"This work is rooted in a wide and important knowledge and understanding of historical ideas and in the existing literature on philosophy with children. There is a real sense in the text of both provocation and encouragement, such as the core focus on childhood as well as on utopianism. The ideas are examined philosophically in a mature, engaging, and accessible style, and the consistent thread of the dialogical also acts to ensure a cohesiveness to the overall text and arguments offered." — Andrew Peterson, Professor of Character and Citizenship Education, Jubilee Centre for Character and Virtues, University of Birmingham"Kennedy is a leading expert in philosophy of childhood and dialogic education. This book represents an important addition to, and in some respects, update of his singular body of work." — Maughn Rollins Gregory, Professor of Educational Foundations, Montclair State University
