Meditation über einen Schlüsselbegriff: „Entgrenzung“ in der reflexiven Moderne

For the author, globalization and lifelong learning are the epitome of disengagement in the economic and/or the pedagogic field. Using the genre of meditation, he develops the concept of disengagement - a shedding of limitations - by the example of disasters, markets, exacting demands in the context of learning, the power of the economy, the responsibilities for education. Reflecting on Comenius and Ralf Dahrendorf, the author tries to ”bring the amok-running economism back to its senses” and discovers the emancipative power of education as an asset of citizens of the world.
