On the Need for Analytical Pedagogy in Poland. A review of a monograph by Alicja Żywczok and Bogumiła Bobik, Pedagogika analityczna. Od porządkowania wiedzy naukowej do odkrywania jej nowych obszarów [Analytical Pedagogy: From Organizing Scientific Knowledge to Discovering New Domains] Katowice: Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Śląskiego, 2022, ss. 156, ISBN 978-83-226-4240-5

The reviewed monograph presents the concept of analytical pedagogy as a new sub-discipline in the landscape of Polish scholarship on education. Its subject is intellectual pursuits consisting in categorizing, typologizing and systematizing concepts relevant to education professionals. The epistemic potential of philosophical logic provides the grounds for ordering our knowledge and thus a better handling of academic and educational work, but also discovering new and so far unexplored areas of cognition. Despite Poland’s noteworthy heritage of analytical research, such a sub-discipline is still lacking in the science(s) of education.
