Description
“Enlightenment is man's release from his self-incurred tutelage“, says Kant. And continues: „Tutelage is man's inability to make use of his understanding without direction from another.“
The question of enlightenment is not only relevant in Kant's time, but also today. Might the enlightened, responsible and autonomous subject be endangered? Where are the most inhibitions on the way to independent thinking? Are radicalization, emotions and irrationality taking the lead? Why debate on enlightenment today?
The International Congress for the Philosophy of Children devoted itself to these questions.
The complexity of the modern world, the variety of choices, the scientific progress, the emergence of numerous expert cultures, the complexity of the conditions present us with enormous challenges. So, how about education and enlightenment?
