Beschreibungen/Notizen
Autonomy is one of the most prominent notions in general educational discourses and in L2 research. Yet, debates about learner autonomy in the field of foreign/second language learning and teaching rarely take into consideration general eduational discourses of autonomy, many of which focus critically on the modernist ideal of the souvereign, autonomous subject. This article argues that the critique of autonomy voiced in educational philosophy can contribute to a more differentiated understanding of the notion of autonomy in foreign/second language learning. It gives an overview of autonomy discourses in both fields an highlights some of the commonalities and differences. In conclusion, it is argued that a more sophisticated concept of autonomy is pivotal if one wants to realistically assess the degree and the kind of independence learners of languages can develop in the context of institutionalized learning, and avoid an unreflected idealization, as well as an unreflected rejection of autonomy.
