Profile
Professional Bio
Michael S. Merry is professor of philosophy in the department of Child Development and Education. He received a broad education in the humanities in Chicago, Leuven and New York before earning his doctorate by combining philosophy and educational policy studies at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He has been visiting fellow at several universities, including Bristol University, New York University and Brown University.
Though he writes on a wide variety of topics, and often through a comparative-international frame, he specializes in any of the following: the various features of educational injustice, both institutional and non-institutional; state paternalism and the ethics of intervention; the politics and epistemology of academic research; the ethics of school choice and school segregation, citizenship and civic education, religion and religious schools, and alternative education in its manifold forms.
He is a frequent contributor to societal debates in Dutch, Belgian and other international media. Recent examples include:
