ABSTRACT
In this chapter Ann Margaret Sharp and Maughn Rollins Gregory draw on the writings of Simone Weil regarding the concepts of Force, the Good, Work, Method and Time to articulate a feminist philosophy of education that locates freedom in self-determined creative work within contexts of necessity. They explain how such a philosophy of education is already instantiated in and can further inform the practices of Philosophy for Children.
