The continuous social change and its dynamics also require a corresponding adaptability of the education system. Pluralisation, individualisation and digitisation in our living environments, increased demands and expectations of education, tendencies towards economisation (such as the "measurement and comparison" of education) as well as an increasing ecological awareness lead to changed framework conditions within a field of tension of the most diverse interests that the education system has to face. These and other aspects are examined and discussed in this monography by authors from 9 European countries, from different angles and with different perspectives. Der kontinuierliche, gesellschaftliche Wandel und seine Dynamik erfordern auch eine entsprechende Anpassungsfähigkeit des Bildungswesens. Die Pluralisierung, Individualisierung und Digitalisierung in unseren Lebenswelten, erhöhte Bildungsansprüche und -erwartungen, Ökonomisierungstendenzen sowie ein steigendes ökologisches Bewusstsein führen zu veränderten Rahmenbedingungen innerhalb eines Spannungsfeldes verschiedenster Interessen, denen sich das Bildungssystem stellen muss. Diese und weitere Aspekte werden in der vorliegenden Monographie von Autoren aus 9 europäischen Ländern, aus verschiedenen Blickwinkeln und mit unterschiedlichen Perspektiven beleuchtet.

This book asks how higher education should approach the task of educating for sustainability and then sets to answering it. It provides a guide for those who advocate for sustainability and for those who do not and makes a point of emphasising that all in higher education have the capacity and willingness to contribute in some way. The challenge is to find an approach that unifies the efforts of higher education teachers towards sustainability objectives, rather than dividing them. People at universities across the world were consulted and a grounded theory was devised. This encourages all university teachers to teach what they want to teach openly and honestly, about sustainability or not; but on the way to ensure that their students develop the critical skills that will enable them to fully understand what is being taught and what they are learning.
