Sobre IBD

'Democracy and Education' is one of John Dewey's most famous classical works and is a landmark of progressive theory. He drove hard to develop strategies and methods for training students for social responsibility. Dewey is not only a giant of modern educational theory but of progressive humanitarian thought. He believed that democracy was both a means and an end to building a just society. In 'Freedom and Culture' Dewey believed that humankind could keep a firm grip on it's destiny only if critical intelligence of the scientific method and it's democratic counterpart were emphasized and promoted. Freedom of inquiry, speech, cultural pluralism and a willingness to co-operate in the pursuit of shared values and ideals would be the springboard for social development. A Collector's Edition.
