In this contribution to the Special Issue on the instrumentalisation of education, we focus on the relation between politics and education, as today there is a dominant discourse on rendering education subservient to the realisation of political aims. Rather than analysing the many ways in which such instrumentalisation takes place, we propose to develop an ontological account that articulates the basic attitude that a political and an educational engagement respectively demand. Our main source of inspiration was Arendt’s claim that education should be conceived of as an autonomous and separate sphere, that is, as being meaningful in and of itself, and without any need for an external justification (e.g. in political terms). Taking this standpoint further we will argue that the unique logic of education can be conceived of in terms of unconditional love for the present world. This affirmative attitude is precisely what makes education educational. Conversely, this calls for a redefinition of the logic that -- following Schmitt -- characterises the political, which we will show to be predicated upon a dialectical relation with the world that consists of an attitude of hate towards the present, in view of an ever deferred hoped-for ideal future. This leads us to reconsider the relation that education as an autonomous sphere of human life enters with politics. In order to theorise this kind relation we refer to the idea of pure means, introduced by Agamben.

重新定义教育和政治:关于两个独立领域之间的矛盾关系

在对“教育工具化专刊”的贡献中,我们关注政治与教育之间的关系,因为今天有一种主要论点是使教育服从于实现政治目标。我们建议不开发分析工具化的多种方式,而是提出一种本体论的表述,以阐明政治和教育活动分别需要的基本态度。我们的主要灵感来源是阿伦特(Arendt)的主张,即教育应被视为一个独立自主的领域,也就是说,教育本身具有意义,不需要任何外部理由(例如,从政治角度而言)。从这一观点出发,我们将争论教育的独特逻辑可以从对当今世界的无条件热爱中来构想。这种肯定的态度正是使教育具有教育意义的原因。相反,这需要重新定义在施密特之后-表征政治的逻辑,我们将证明该逻辑基于与世界的辩证关系,其中包括对当前的仇恨态度。曾经推迟了理想的未来。这使我们重新考虑教育作为人类生活的自主领域与政治的关系。为了理论化这种关系,我们参考了Agamben引入的纯手段的思想。这就需要重新定义在施密特之后-表征政治的逻辑,我们将证明该逻辑是基于与世界的辩证关系,该关系包括对当前的仇恨态度,这是由于人们对人类的仇恨态度一直存在。希望实现理想的未来。这使我们重新考虑教育作为人类生活的自主领域与政治的关系。为了理论化这种关系,我们参考了Agamben引入的纯手段的思想。这就需要重新定义在施密特之后-表征政治的逻辑,我们将证明该逻辑是基于与世界的辩证关系,该关系包括对当前的仇恨态度,这是由于人们对人类的仇恨态度一直存在。希望实现理想的未来。这使我们重新考虑教育作为人类生活的自主领域与政治的关系。为了理论化这种关系,我们参考了Agamben引入的纯手段的思想。这使我们重新考虑教育作为人类生活的自主领域与政治的关系。为了理论化这种关系,我们参考了Agamben引入的纯手段的思想。这使我们重新考虑教育作为人类生活的自主领域与政治的关系。为了理论化这种关系,我们参考了Agamben引入的纯手段的思想。
