Anthroposophic Perspectives in Inclusive Social Development

The bilingual international journal for anthroposophic curative education, social therapy and related fields of work

The journal Perspectives is an English and German bilingual professional journal for anthroposophic curative education and social therapy. It is published quarterly and discusses the foundations of the anthroposophic understanding of the human being and disability, offers contributions to practice, engages with contemporary approaches and viewpoints on inclusion of individuals with disabilities and brings regular reports on international perspectives.  It stands in dialogue with the practice of curative education and social therapy in early childhood education, schools and school communities, integrative and inclusive schools, vocational and living supports, and rural and urban inclusive communities. It is the successor of the journal Seelenpflege in Heilpädagogik und Sozialtherapie, which appeared until 2019.

New: In October 2021, the first digital special issue in Spanish was published (see below). To download it as a single issue in PDF format, please go to the ‘Subscribe to Perspectives’ page. Further Spanish as well as Russian special issues are in preparation.
