Joanne Faulkner Biography

Joanne Faulkner (born 14 April 1972) is an Australian writer, philosopher and Future Fellow in Cultural Studies at Macquarie University. She is known for her research on the ontology of childhood, Nietzsche’s thought, and the ethics of innocence.

Faulkner received her Ph.D. in philosophy from La Trobe University in 2006.

In her 2011 book, The Importance of Being Innocent, she discusses the concept of innocence in regards to children, arguing that it the idea of “innocent childhood” serves a broader social need to manage anxieties about the pressures placed upon adults by contemporary life, as well as racial, gender, and class difference, rather than serving the needs of children. The release of the book close to Christmas time caused some controversy in the popular media A review by Gender and Education called her book “a thought provoking and wide-ranging consideration of philosophical perspectives on contemporary assumptions about childhood” in the Westernised world, especially in Australia. Faulkner has stated that her interest in exploring innocence in relation to children came from “the expectations we put on them through being a parent,” but that she also is interested in innocence as it applies to political thought and political justifications.

Faulkner was the Chair of the Australasian Society for Continental Philosophy from 2012 to 2015 and is presently the Society’s Deputy Chair. She is also a member of the project Living Archives on Eugenics in Western Canada.
