Biografie und Lebenslauf stehen sich nicht mehr antonymisch gegenüber, sondern treten ins Verhältnis zueinander. Auf der theoretischen Grundlage des erweiterten kategorialen Rahmens ist ein breites Forschungsfeld entstanden, das Lehr-Lern-Prozesse aus der Perspektive der Biografie- und Lebenslaufforschung untersucht. Diese Ausgabe referiert auf diese Forschungslage. Sie knüpft damit an die Themenhefte des REPORT „Biografieforschung und biografisches Lernen“ und „Biografie und Bildung“ an, legt …
In aktuellen Diskussionen um Wissen, um dessen Genese und Bedeutung werden kulturtheoretische Aspekte ebenso wie Fragen des Zugangs zum Wissen oder einer Technokratisierung der Gesellschaft verhandelt. Die Erwachsenenbildung beteiligt sich an diesem Diskurs und bringt dabei ihr klassisches Verständnis von Wissen ein, das sie als Grundkategorie von Bildung und Lernen versteht. Dieses Heft untersucht Wissen im Spannungsfeld von Potenzial und Macht und diskutiert Fragen des Nutzens, der Instrument…
Going out from the »UN ECE Strategy for Education for Sustainable Development« of March 2005 the author describes which challenges have arisen from the establishment of the perspective of sustainability. In an overview of the different areas of adult education it becomes obvious, how variable the concept of ESD finds acceptance (adult evening classes, environmental education, global learning, academies). Eventually the contribution encourages to comprehend ESD as a chance for adult education an…

The regular manifestation of modern age as a knowledge-based society on the one hand as well as the consensual acceptance of the appeal for lifelong learning on the other hand, create the opposite of an image in which the pedagogical aspect of continuing education has been lost. The author argues that learners are increasingly left unsupported, lifelong learning has become more fiction than reality and continui…
The author presents examples of good practice and defines central tasks and processes of modern libraries, which are regarded as central learning spaces for adults. Using the criteria »shortage – surplus«, »consumption – co-creation« and »product – process«, the relevant social challenges for libraries and adult education are described. It becomes evident that libraries and adult education are in a period of transition, which requires suitable architectural solutions.
In this article the theory and practice of adult education are described as a system which sustains itself using certain rules of play. The author starts out with an introduction to the term »play/game« placing particular emphasis on the fact that this game sets off further acts of communication: further moves are made. Next, four dimensions are identified in which ways of playing games can be observed: the personal, the social, the organisational and the community dimension. Adult education is…

"Further education for all" as a theory problem On pedagogy and its partial areas The policy metaphor "further education for all" poses a challenge for further education processes in adult education and the special education. It puts aspects of disability and disadvantage from the edge into the centre of the theory problems. The question is how further education and special education (can) deal with the altered public problem horizon. It is analysed how the two pedagogical partial areas cho…
