Resumen

SAFSTROM, Carl Anders. Are we living the end of democracy? a defence of the “free” time of the university and school in an era of authoritarian capitalism. Conjectura: filos. e Educ. [online]. 2020, vol.25, edossie.1. ISSN 2178-4612.  https://doi.org/10.18226/21784612.v25.dossie.1.

In this article I address education beyond individualism, elitism and instrumentalism and instead understand education as central for a democratic way of life. I discuss the role of education in the making of democratic forms of life in the university, in the school as well as in other contexts outside institutions. I argue for the importance of defending the “free time” of the university and school against a “time of production” as a defining characteristic of university and school. I will show how a time of production undermine the very possibility of education, and which therefore also tends to negate pluralist democracy.

Palabras clave : Free time; Time of production; Pluralist democracy; Education; Radical change.
