Abstract

U radu se analizira povezanost opresivnih društvenih struktura i odgojno-obrazovnih praksi u djelu Ivana Illicha (Deschooling Society) i u djelu Paula Freira (Pedagogy of the Oppressed). Pruža se kratak pregled Illichevih i Freirovih kritika upućenih odgojno-obrazovnim institucijama i tijelima vlasti jer omogućuju reprodukciju opresivih društvenih struktura. Također, detaljno se analiziraju i problemi današnjeg odgojno-obrazovnog sustava. Naime, i danas je moguće sagledavati odgojno-obrazovni sustav iz perspektive spomenutih autora, a njihove teorije su prema nalazima istraživanja i mišljenju stručnjaka i dalje relevantne. Raspravlja se o ulozi odgojno-obrazovnog sustava u procesu društvene transformacije. Zaključuje se da su promjene u području obrazovanja vrlo spore i da je odgojno-obrazovna praksa i danas, u velikoj mjeri političko sredstvo. Međutim, tračak nade daju istraživanja prema kojima se učitelji sve više vode načelima kritičke pedagogije (kojoj su značajan doprinos dali Illich i Freire) usmjerene na proučavanje odnosa moći i hegemonije i prema kojoj obrazovanje treba imati važnu ulogu u transformaciji postojećih odnosa u društvu. U tom smislu trebalo bi više poticati i i naglašavati emancipacijsku ulogu škole usmjerenu na razvijanje odgojno-obrazovnih praksi temeljenih na ravnopravnoj interakciji između svih sudionika nastave i orjentirane na razvoj neovisnih i kreativnih pojedinaca sposobnih kritički razmišljati. Ukoliko odgojno-obrazovni sustav promatramo kao mjesto borbe za jednakost (npr. rasnu, klasnu, rodnu itd.), a školovanje kao proces koji utječe na naše osobine i vrijednosti i koji oblikuje mišljenje o nama samima kao i o svijetu koji nas okružuje, upravo mu je jedna od glavnih zadaća odgajati i obrazovati mlađe generacije da budu sposobne mijenjati društvo tj. poticati njegovu transformaciju.

Abstract (english)

The degree essay analysis the relationship between oppressive social structures and educational practices reviewed in the work of Ivan Illich (Deschooling Society) and Paul Freire (“Pedagogy of the Oppressed”). It provides a brief overview of Illich's and Freire's critiques of educational institutions and authorities because they allow the reproduction of oppressive social structures. The problems of today's educational system are analysed in detail as well. Even today it is possible to look at the educational system from the perspective of the mentioned authors, and their theories are still relevant according to the findings of research and the opinion of experts. In this work the role of the educational system in the process of social transformation is being discussed. It is concluded that changes in the field of education are very slow and that educational practice is still, to a large extent, a political tool. However, a glimmer of hope is provided by research according to which teachers are increasingly guided by the principles of critical pedagogy (to which Illich and Freire made a significant contribution) aimed at studying the relationship between power and hegemony and according to which education should play an important role in transforming existing relations in society. Regarding above mentioned, the emancipatory role of the school aimed at developing educational practices based on equal interaction between all participants and oriented towards the development of independent and creative individuals capable of critical thinking should be encouraged and emphasized. If we look at the educational system as a place of struggle for equality (i.e. racial, class, gender, etc.), and schooling as a process that affects our characteristics and values and that shapes opinions about ourselves and the world around us, one of the main tasks of that system is to educate younger generations to be able to change society, i.e. to encourage its transformation.
