Abstract

ALVES NETO, Rodrigo Ribeiro. ARENDT AND THE CRISIS OF EDUCATION AS A CRISIS OF HISTORICAL TIME. Revista Teias [online]. 2019, vol.20, n.58, pp.88-114.  Epub Dec 26, 2019. ISSN 1982-0305.  https://doi.org/10.12957/teias.2018.44396.

The article interprets the crisis of authority and the crisis of education, as diagnosed by Hannah Arendt, as expressions of a crisis of temporality and historicity in the modern world. Different reflections on the current order of time point to contemporaneity as an expression of social and technological transformations from which emerged a new regime of historicity in which the present is more and more prolonged, disconnected from the past, poor in experience, devoid of directionality and with the future increasingly opaque, managed and immediate. The crisis of education would today be an expression of the weakening of the tension between novelty and memory provoked by this presentism that abolishes the articulation between the past and the future, transforming the culture into merchandise for the instantaneous and voracious consumption of adults and young people governed by the ideal of happiness momentary and immediate.

Keywords : Arendt; crisis; education; authority; time.
