This essay reminisces on the contributions of Professor Kazamias to my own thinking and assesses the imperative for comparative and international education to foster more complete and egalitarian societies across multiple historic and cultural contexts. “Paideia of the soul” is acknowledged as connected not only to the humanities but also to the social sciences, within which education is embedded. The broadening of the mind enabled by “paideia of the soul” challenges current trends toward a narrowing of the curricula in schools and encourages us to be reflexively critical of current global education policies and practices.

关于“灵魂之Pa”的思考

本文回想起哈萨米斯教授对我个人思想的贡献，并评估了比较教育和国际教育在多种历史和文化背景下建立更完整和平等社会的必要性。人们公认“灵魂的Paideia”不仅与人文学科息息相关，而且与其中包含教育的社会科学息息相关。由“灵魂的意识形态”引起的思想拓宽挑战了当前学校课程缩窄的趋势，并鼓励我们对当前的全球教育政策和实践进行反思。
