Abstract
In May 2005 a group of people met at Sunbridge College, New York. What brought them together was a common question: Within the framework of recognized university life, how can a transnational research culture emerge that nurtures Steiner Waldorf Education in open dialogue with the streams of current educational research? The background was, at that time, the emerging European Bologna Process in education, with its probable future implications for freedom and human values in education in general, and Steiner Waldorf Education in particular. Since this Bologna Process in essence is characterized by being transnational, its counterforce can only be established at a transnational level. The legal framework of quality assessment and control that it imposes on future education can only be met when there is a culture of research that matches its proposition, for instance by addressing questions of spiritual values in higher education. With this background, three fields of research were identified and worked with separately (A, B, C) and subsequently placed within the context of the fourth field (D).
