  • Summary

  • As the debate over what should and shouldn't be taught in schools rages on, we're in danger of obsessing over the details and missing the larger picture: what's the true point of education?  

    The Dead Poets Society puts a tradition of conformity in battle against a tradition of liberalism. 

    What should the education of children in a free society look like?

    ◬ In this episode:   

    ⋗ Differentiating between education vs. indoctrination ⋗ Should education cultivate individuality? ⋗ Is education actually meant to corrupt the youth? ⋗ Are we battling ideas or battling traditions? ⋗ Monti-Solo School ⋗ Why is the education system a web of confusion? ⋗ Teaching values vs. beliefs ⋗ Succumbing to subjectivity vs. aiming for objectivity ⋗ Do we have a culture of inherent mistrust? ⋗ Teacher! Leave those kids alone!
