Dr. Nick Stock is an independent researcher, currently exploring Lacanian psychoanalysis as an approach to unravelling the desires of teachers. He has other interests in poststructuralist philosophy and radical political theory. He holds a doctorate in Philosophy of Education from the University of Birmingham and is also an English teacher in an inner-city Sixth Form College. https://ironisteducator.wordpress.com

For more of his work, see his recent publication in Pedagogy, Culture and Society ‘The Weird, Eerie, Exit Pedagogy of Mark Fisher‘ and his forthcoming publication in British Psychoanalytic Council magazine New Associations ‘My Teaching. Lacanian Reflections from the Classroom’. http://www.renderingunconscious.org/psychoanalysis/ru253-nicholas-stock-does-the-teacher-enjoy-thinking-through-educational-enjoyment-with-lacan/
Philosophical questions about teachers often ask what teachers are for, or less interestingly, how they can improve. But amidst teacher recruitment shortfall, waves of teacher strikes, a disillusioned workforce, and a rising sense of educational authoritarianism, we might wonder whether the teacher can enjoy “being” a teacher. Did they ever, and what sorts of enjoyment are to be found? Drawing on Lacanian theory, this talk will explore the structure of education
that teachers find themselves amidst, consider the teacher as a subject in this structure, and pose questions concerning educational enjoyment, or jouissance.
