Max Horkheimer on Education - Dictionary of Arguments
Habermas III 465 Education/Horkheimer/Habermas: in modernity, educational knowledge is separated from modern philosophy, which at the same time identifies itself ambiguously as an opponent and heir of religion with science and temporarily saves it into the scientific system. This educational knowledge is primarily justified by the fact that it continues traditions. >Cultural tradition, >Culture, >Society, cf. >Cultural relativism. Problem: the difficulty of traditionalism in education is that it has to conceal its own basis. For only those traditions must be conjured at all that are not certified by good reasons.(1) >Cultural values, >Values, cf. >Historiography. 1.M. Horkheimer, Zur Kritik der instrumentellen Vernunft, Frankfurt 1967, S.32._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
