Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"There emerges, over many pages, a nuanced picture in which dialogue and the tensions of the I-It relationship are at the centre. The book is written in a fresh and unpretentious way, avoiding overcomplicated sentence structures. Consequently, a clear style prevails and the arguments and thoughts are very well explained and developed logically and stringently. The authors show a profound knowledge of Buber’s writings, but this is not obscured by minor detail." - Dr Arnim Kaiser, Weiterbildung Zeitschrift

'[...] Buber's though does not offer us precise advice; rather, it 'points the way' and this is the pathway taken by Morgan and Guilherme. The true value of Buber and Education is its essential reminder that despite practical difficulties, dialogical education is loaded with hope. Morgan and Guilherme recognise that it is through education that we can acheive true peace, which is something radically different from a political ceasefire.' - Yaniv Feller, Revue Diogène - Théories et pratiques de la non-violence

Reseña del editor:

Martin Buber (1878-1965) is considered one of the 20th century’s greatest thinkers and his contributions to philosophy, theology and education are testimony to this. His thought is founded on the idea that people are capable of two kinds of relations, namely I-Thou and I-It, emphasising the centrality of dialogue in all spheres of human life. For this reason, Buber is considered by many to be the philosopher of dialogue par excellence.

After Buber’s death the appreciation of his considerable legacy to the various disciplines in which he had worked became rather muted, but was never completely forgotten. There is now a renewed and growing interest in Buber’s thought, especially in his philosophy of education. This book brings together aspects of Buber’s philosophy and educational practice, and explains their significance for peace dialogue and for conflict resolution, both between individuals and communities.

Buber's philosophy of dialogue and views on education are pivotal in demonstrating the personal and social benefits of dialogical education as well as the dangers of non-dialogical education. The book will be valuable reading for academics, researchers and postgraduate students interested in Martin Buber, education, peace dialogue and conflict resolution.
