Jan Masschelein is Professor for Philosophy of Education at the Catholic University of Leuven, Belgium. His primary areas of scholarship are educational theory, social and political philosophy, and critical theory.

His recent publications include The Learning Society from the Perspective of Governmentality (ed., Blackwell, 2007).
