Recent critique of the fundamentals of didactics - Consequences for the development of didactic concepts within the field of pedagogics as school subject

The author sketches the recent critique of the fundamentals of didactic the ory, taking a close look at the development of didactic models for the subj ect pedagogics. In so far as the present critique of the fundamentals does not critically reflect the foundations of existing didactic theories on a h igher level but, rather, negates them in the abstract, it is itself open to critique. Based on Heydorn's theory of education, these trends are also in vestigated in the didactics of pedagogics as school subject. The changed mo dels of legitimization, in particular, which serve the grounding of the sub ject pedagogics are examined and analyzed with regard to their impact on di sciplinary didactic concepts. In the final part, the author discusses a pos sible new accentuation in didactics for the school subject pedagogics.
