On Education : Conversations with Riccardo Mazzeo - Thryft

Navigating Education in an Uncertain World.

"On Education" is a valuable read for educators and parents looking to help the younger generation navigate the increasingly uncertain world they are inheriting. Bauman discusses the challenges young people face today, from social media pressures to a lack of job security, and the role of educators in guiding them towards a hopeful future. The book's most unique feature is its focus on the liquid modern world in which we live, providing readers with a fresh perspective on the challenges of education and the importance of adapting to an ever-changing world.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Qual è il ruolo dell’educazione in un tempo che ha smarrito una chiara visione del futuro e in cui l’idea di un modello unico e condiviso di umanità sembra essere il residuo di un’era ormai conclusa? Quale ruolo dovrebbero rivestire gli educatori ora che i giovani vivono una profonda incertezza rispetto al loro futuro, i progetti a lungo termine sono diventati più difficili, le norme tradizionali sono meno autorevoli e flussi sempre più cospicui di persone hanno creato comunità variegate in cui culture differenti si ritrovano a vivere fianco a fianco senza più essere unite dalla convinzione che l’altro verrà prima o poi assimilato alla «nostra» cultura?Posti di fronte alle sconcertanti caratteristiche del nostro mondo liquido moderno, molti giovani tendono a ritirarsi – in alcuni casi nella rete, in giochi e relazioni virtuali, in altri casi nell’anoressia, nella depressione, nell’abuso di alcol o droghe – nella speranza di proteggersi così da un universo oscuro e vorticoso. Altri si lanciano in forme di comportamento più violento come le guerre tra bande o i saccheggi perpetrati da chi si sente escluso dai templi del consumo ma è avido di partecipare alla funzione. Tutto questo avviene mentre i nostri politici restano a guardare, distratti e indifferenti. In questo breve libro Zygmunt Bauman – il più grande teorico sociale della nostra contemporaneità, qui in conversazione con Riccardo Mazzeo, un intellettuale suo amico – riflette sulla situazione delle ragazze e dei ragazzi di oggi e sul ruolo dell’educazione e degli educatori in uno scenario dove le certezze dei nostri predecessori non possono più essere date per scontate.
