This book is the first to offer academic examination of the theoretical contributions and practical applications of community philosophy. Bringing together voices from diverse contexts and subject areas, from activism and political action to religious environments, arts organisations and museums to maximum security prisons, this collection asks key questions about the point of making philosophy available for everyone : 'How do you "do philosophy" with the public?' ; 'Is philosophy in the community the same as academic philosophy?' ; 'Why is community philosophy important?' Including contributions from practitioners and researchers from professional philosophy, education, health care, and community philosophy, this collection offers perspectives on a growing area of study. It offers a timely and critical introduction to, and analysis of, what philosophy can be when grounded in socially-engaged activities."
