What is it that inspires us humans tot take responsibility for our involvement with the natural environment? And how do we familiarise children with practices of environmental responsibility? These questions are at the heart of this book, resulting from a comprehensive inquiry into the ethical and politico-philosophical dimensions of environmental education. Two sources of inspiration and responsibility are discussed in particular. First, as citizens of a civil society, inspiration stems from our commitment to the continuation of the collective practices in which we are already engaged. Second, inspiration emerges from our sensual-aesthetic acquaintanceship with the natural surroundings in the course of our everyday activities. This study concludes that there is insufficient room for these sources of inspiration and responsibility within the prevailing framework of Education for Sustainable Development (ESD). An alternative view on the nature and purpose of environmental education is put forward in light of these shortcomings. This view aims to retrieve an existential human sense of care for our natural environment, beyond the narrowly defined appeals made on behalf of future generations, as well as beyond the romantic appeals made on behalf of the intrinsic sovereignty of nature.

Bewonersparticipatie, kunst en cultuur raken steeds prominenter met elkaar verbonden in Nederlandse stadswijken die ingrijpende herstructurering ondergaan. De wens om fysieke, sociale en culturele interventies in krachtwijken samen te brengen, komt voort uit de inzet van het cultuurbeleid op sociale cohesie, het volwassen worden van de community art-sector en het aanjagen van bewonersparticipatie door de 'Wijkaanpak'. Vanuit een positief onderbuikgevoel grepen woningcorporaties en stadsdelen de afgelopen jaren geregeld naar culturele interventies om wijken leefbaar te houden in tijden van grote omwentelingen door stedelijke vernieuwing. Maar er leven nog altijd veel vragen: Hoe kunnen culturele interventies het beste begeleid worden? Hoe stem je de agenda's van de uiteenlopende stakeholders op elkaar af? Wat leveren de culturele interventies op? Versterken ze het thuisgevoel van bewoners in de wijk? Genereren ze sociale dynamiek?Op basis van onderzoek naar drie concrete culturele interventies in Amsterdamse krachtwijken verkennen de auteurs van het lectoraat Burgerschap en Culturele Dynamiek aan de Hogeschool van Amsterdam deze vragen en laten zij zien welke rol culturele interventies in verschillende fasen van stedelijke vernieuwing kunnen vervullen en hoe multidisciplinaire teams die de interventies begeleiden het beste functioneren. Zij tonen de meerwaarde van culturele interventies. Deze schuilt in hun verbindende kracht, in de effecten die ze sorteren, in hun complementaire werking aan andere interventies en in het creëren van een platform voor het onderzoeken van nieuwe werkwijzen, onder meer om bewoners waarachtige inspraak te geven
