Uszkolnienie marksizmu. Edukacja a zmiana społeczna

Abstract

One of the constitutive assumptions for Marx and Engels’ thought was to criticise the Enlightenment’s ideaof revolution in school education. This education, which was an elite right in their time, did not become anobject of independent reflection. The workers’ movement identified it with self-education. Intelligence withschooling. The development of schooling pushed towards the transfer of political struggle to the school.Educational policy in countries ruled by authoritarian parties appealing to Marxism and in countries wheremovements appealing to Marxism had an impact on education became a new problem. The current profoundcrisis of these phenomena makes us ask questions about the logic of their development and the reasons forthe current breakdown.
