Description

This book aims to analyze some aspects of contemporary education based on Adorno's observations on the cultural development of modernity. It then seeks to understand the possible relationships between the developments of this thinker's critiques and the teaching of philosophy. The first topic considers the creation of a cultural model whose main objective would be to adapt individuals to an increasingly reifying social structure, and since this contributes to historical experiences of great barbarism, the analysis of this cultural model is presented as a fundamental assumption in relation to reflection on contemporary education. Based on these observations, we attempt to ascertain the extent to which Adorno preserves a dialectical conception of education, and how this is processed in its function of "resistance." Specifically, we will analyze this detail in the context of philosophy teaching, that is, how its teaching could contribute to a critical cultural education, capable of strengthening consciences so that they do not surrender to adaptation, retroacting on culture and society.
