PREVIEW: What is Education For?

Current Affairs - see all episodes

Nathan, Pete and Sparky discuss the book Cult of Smart: How Our Broken Education System Perpetuates Social Injustice, and education more broadly. Should there be a curriculum? Should twelve-year-olds be allowed to drop out? Is it possible to have a radically democratic school? Is there such a thing as "intelligence"? What is "education" anyway? We answer all these questions and more. Full episode here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/42516771 This is a preview of an episode available in full to our $5 Patreon subscribers.
