  • WATANABE, Fukutaro
    Associate Professor

    Education Studies
    Philosophy of Education, Educational Thought

    My primary interests are in the philosophy of education and the philosophy of language, especially that of Wittgenstein. My current research focuses mainly on the classic and fundamental problem of education concerning autonomy-heteronomy opposition. I am working on this problem by considering questions about normative and creative aspects of language, relationships between personal experiences and the meaning of words, and possibilities of releasing ourselves from the bondage of concepts.
