  • Learning between progress and risk : educational issues in a globalising society
    Mitter, Wolfgang
    It is true that "globalisation" is frequently associated with economic events and processes. Yet, its range has been long extended to social and political processes at the macro- and micro-level of ... human communities. Education has been entirely involved in the pluridisciplinary debate as a reinforcing as well as a stimulating force. The challenges to education, caused by globalisation can be analysed under particular aspects. These are dealing with: education as a lifelong process; the international and global dimension of education; schools between continuity and change; revision of the curriculum; education for identity-building and acceptance of basic human values. The globalisation debate with its challenges to education is embedded in the overarching question concerning its perspectives. On the one hand the teleological or deterministic orientation ("global progress towards a better world") dominates. On the other hand the debate must attach special importanceto the theory of the "world risk society", based upon the human nature "between good and evil". Reflections on "Real Utopia" pave the way to theoretical clarification and to guidelines for human action.
