This paper reports on the state of affairs of the "Erziehungswissenschaften" in the Netherlands. For this description of the educational sciences we primarily rely on a report written in 2014 by a committee that prepared a discipline plan educational sciences (CSO 2014). This report was commissioned by the association of universities in the Netherlands (VSNU .), the umbrella association of research universities. Such reports regularly are prepared to describe the state of affairs of a discipline and advice on policies for the future development of a discipline. For the educational sciences, the committee was composed of representatives of most universities at the level of university executive boards, faculty deans and department chairs. (DIPF/Orig.) ; Der Autor setzt sich mit der Situation der Erziehungswissenschaft in den Niederlanden auseinander. Dafür stellt er u.a. Ergebnisse des "Sectorplan onderwijswetenschappen" vor, in dessen Mittelpunkt die Frage steht, welchen Einfluss universitäre erziehungswissenschaftliche Forschung, die in den Niederlanden explizit interdisziplinär verstanden wird, auf Bildungspraxis und Bildungspolitik hat. Eine bessere Verzahnung zwischen erziehungswissenschaftlicher Forschung sowie Bildungspraxis und Bildungspolitik könnte langfristig eine Stärkung der Erziehungswissenschaft in den Niederlanden ermöglichen.

This introductory text is specifically targeted at ecologists and resource scientists, illustrating how sampling theory can be applied in a wide variety of resource contexts. The emphasis throughout is on design-based sampling from finite populations but attention is also given to model-based prediction and sampling from infinite populations.

In Fugitive Thought, Michael Hames-Garcma argues that writings by prisoners are instances of practical social theory that seek to transform the world. Unlike other authors who have studied prisons or legal theory, Hames-Garcma views prisoners as political and social thinkers whose ideas are as important as those of lawyers and philosophers. As key moral terms like "justice," "solidarity," and "freedom" have come under suspicion in the post-Civil Rights era, political discussions on the Left have reached an impasse. Fugitive Thought reexamines and reinvigorates these concepts through a fresh approach to philosophies of justice and freedom, combining the study of legal theory and of prison literature to show how the critiques and moral visions of dissidents and participants in prison movements can contribute to the shaping and realization of workable ethical conceptions. Fugitive Thought focuses on writings by black and Latina/o lawyers and prisoners to flesh out the philosophical underpinnings of ethical claims within legal theory and prison activism. Michael Hames-Garcma is assistant professor of English and of philosophy, interpretation, and culture at Binghamton University, State University of New York
