Naomi Hogson is Reader in Education at Edge Hill University in the UK and Visiting Professor at KU Leuven in Belgium (*Note, I mistakenly describe her as an Associate Professor in Education Studies at Liverpool Hope University in the preface to the interview). Her research focuses on the relationship between education, governance, and subjectivity. She’s also a visiting research fellow at the Laboratory for Education and Society at KU Leuven, Belgium. She has published a number of books, including Citizenship for the Learning Society: Europe, Subjectivity, and Educational Research, Philosophical Presentation of Raising Children: The Grammar of Upbringing, and her most cited work, the Manifesto for a Post-Critical Pedagogy with Joris Vlieghe, Piotr Zamojski.
