Tre teorie sulla differenza uomo/donna

Perché uomo e donna hanno sempre avuto ruoli differenti?
1) Perché l’uomo era superiore.
2) Perché la donna era oppressa,
3) Perché si sono divisi i compiti.

Have men really been engaged in a centuries-old conspiracy to exploit and oppress women? Have the essential differences between men and women really been…

Camus sull'intellettuale engagé

Albert Camus medita sull'impegno politico: tutte le idee distorte finiscono nel sangue, ma si tratta sempre del sangue altrui. Ecco perché certi nostri intellettuali si sentono liberi di dire qualunque cosa.

Philosophers usually emphasize the importance of logic, clarity and reason. Therefore when they address political issues they will usually inject a dose of rationality in these discussions, right?Wrong. This book gives a lot of examples showing the unexpected…

L'ERA DELLA SFIDUCIA

Il pubblico contemporaneo della politica ha qualcosa di originale: interviene direttamente, è privo di intermediazioni e insolitamente vicino ai protagonisti.
Tuttavia conserva molti arcaismi: crede ancora nelle “storie”, crede cioè nel fatto che le cose accadano perché qualcuno le vuole.
Il corto circuito di nuovo e vecchio: la sfiducia.
Viviamo nell’era della sfiducia. Il pubblico registra contemporaneamente la sua potenza (il suo essere sulla scena) e la sua impotenza (le cose che desidera non accadono). Il pubblico sfiduciato scarica l’energia negativa accumulata sui protagonisti, ovvero i politici.

La nuova geografia nella nuova scuola

Lo nuova geografia a scuola... La maestra piazza al centro della classe un bel mappamondo e i bambini si affollano attorno curiosi facendo domande. Ma per carità! Questi sono approcci vecchi e superati. La maestra piuttosto che rispondere sottoporrà loro una scheda con domande a quiz del tipo "il verme è fuori o dentro la mela?" o "La mela è vicina alla pera o è lontana?". Occorre che il bambino acquisisca l' idea di spazialità. È l'intellettualismo della nuova scuola.
Molti lamentano la crisi della cultura scientifica, la diffusione di un analfabetismo scientifico e tecnologico, che inizia nella scuola e sarebbe alimentato da una diffusa ostilità nei confronti della scienza. Il modo di curare questa malattia consisterebbe nel…
