Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Paul Feyerabend was a pivotal figure in reshaping intellectual discourse in the latter half of the 20th century. His deep understanding of both the history and current state of the sciences, combined with his philosophical background and passion for the arts, led him to consistently question dominant views in science and philosophy. Feyerabend was particularly concerned with education, critiquing how scientific beliefs and worldviews are often taught as absolute truths rather than as flawed, debatable theories or as practices of inquiry. His insights address a variety of pedagogical issues, including the structure of educational theories, the role of science in education, and the goals and methods of teaching. He advocated for a distinctive approach that aligns with Continental European discussions on Bildung in its broadest sense. This volume examines the diverse educational perspectives influenced by Feyerabend's original and creative contributions. Scholars from around the world, experts in their fields, present and analyze how Feyerabend's ideas challenge conventional views and enrich future discussions in pedagogy.
