| Abstract: | The aim of this article is twofold: first, to discuss the institutional preconditions of a democratic paideia, both at the social level and the educational level itself; and second, to examine a transition strategy for the move from present miseducation (as it evolved in modernity) to a democratic paideia through an emancipatory education process. A basic tenet of the approach adopted by this paper is that education is intrinsically linked to politics as the very meaning of education is assumed to be defined by the prevailing meaning of politics. |
