The Child Is the Teacher: A Life of Maria Montessori
There is interesting quote form speech of Montessori to UNESCO in The Technological Society(Jacuqes Ellul):<p>&#x27;We must awaken the child&#x27;s social conscience. I know that it is a complicated educational question, but the child who will become the man must be able to understand life and its needs, the fundamental reason for all existence, the search for happiness . .. He must know exactly what he must do and what he must not do for the good of humanity ... To reach these ends, we must prepare the child to understand the meaning and necessity of the entente among the nations. The organization of the peace devolves more on education than on politics. To secure peace practically, we must envision a humane education, psychopedagogy, which affects not one nation but all men on earth . . . Education must become a truly humane science to guide all men to judge the present situation correctly.&#x27;<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;archive.org&#x2F;details&#x2F;JacquesEllulTheTechnologicalSociety" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;archive.org&#x2F;details&#x2F;JacquesEllulTheTechnologicalSoci...</a> (page 346)<p>Its all in the eyes of the beholder, but I felt it almost as the education in brave new world, it was kind of strange, especially because my daughter goes to a Montessori school. I feel it will be much harder for her to reject it than it would&#x27;ve been in a normal school.<p>A bit like Zizek&#x27;s take on the modern Boss: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=fQlJE7ABNu4" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=fQlJE7ABNu4</a>
