AUGUSTO, Maurício Liberal. Idea of the future in politics and education: a dialogue with Arendt. Cad. Pesqui. [online]. 2016, vol.46, n.161, pp.870-894.  Epub 01-Jul-2016. ISSN 1980-5314.  https://doi.org/10.1590/198053143604.

This paper examines the semantic force contained in notions of the future in politics and education, based on Hannah Arendt's essay "Crisis in Education" (1958). For her, the tradition left a legacy regarding the conception of politics as a creation (poiésis), taking away the very dignity of human action (práxis) in this context of vita activa [active life]. The political phenomenon of birth, the eruption of newarrivals in the world and the promise of a new beginning, serve as counterpoints to the desire to create, be it a new society or be it a new man, in the educational context. The over-use of the slogan of a school of the future justifies a more detailed examination of the conservative attitude that Arendt bestows upon education in its exercise of political thought as a form of preserving the new political potential of new-arrivals in the world.

Palabras clave : Politics; Education; Future; Arendt, Hannah.
