Bildung für nachhaltige Entwicklung
摘要
This keyword article sheds light on the discourse and research field of “Education for Sustainable Development” (ESD). In view of the heterogeneous nature of the field, the research is summarised from three perspectives: Firstly, a historical approach to the different strands of ESD development is chosen. Secondly, the field is analysed on the basis of N. Luhmann’s dimensions of meaning. Thirdly, the state of research is sorted using the offer-utilisation model by presenting exemplary research results. It is visible that the field of research is developing intensively, but that only a few stable findings are available to date. Empirical educational research, better links between research strands and a clear self-reflective localisation in the field are named as strategies for the further development of the research field.
