The book Democratic Culture and Education for the Good of Every Person and the World is a theoretical and practical tool for those seeking an education that goes beyond the mere transmission of knowledge, shaping individuals capable of living, thinking, and acting democratically. Linking the philosophy of education, Biesta, Dewey, the Council of Europe's Reference Framework of Competences for Democratic Culture, and contemporary teaching practice in Greece and worldwide, this book establishes a proposal of "applied democracy" for schools.
The reader is guided from the fundamental questions about the purpose of education, subjectification, the good, and democracy to specific methods, strategies, and teaching tools.
Collaborative learning, reflection, learning through social contribution, play, arts, children's voices, controversial issues, and restorative practices become pedagogical pathways of democratic culture. This work serves as a theoretical guide and practical manual for educators, students, trainers, and academics who educate future teachers to be capable of improving or changing the world.
