Although universal schooling has been adopted as a goal by international organizations, bilateral aid agencies, national governments, and non-profit organizations, little sustained international attention has been devoted to the purposes or goals of universal education. What is universal primary and secondary education intended to accomplish? This book, which grew out of a project of the American Academy of Arts & Sciences, offers views from Asia, Africa, Europe, North America and South America on the purposes of universal education while considering diverse cultures, religions, and professions. It is the first book in which renowned authors from around the world have proposed, considered, and debated goals of basic and secondary education, engaging in a constructive dialogue on one of the most pressing issues facing education today.
Aunque la educación universal ha sido adoptada como objetivo por organizaciones internacionales, agencias de ayuda bilateral, gobiernos nacionales y organizaciones sin fines de lucro, se ha dedicado poca atención internacional sostenida a los propósitos u objetivos de la educación universal. ¿Qué pretende lograr la educación primaria y secundaria universal? Este libro, que surgió de un proyecto de la Academia Estadounidense de Artes y Ciencias, ofrece puntos de vista de Asia, África, Europa, América del Norte y América del Sur sobre los propósitos de la educación universal al tiempo que considera diversas culturas, religiones y profesiones. Es el primer libro en el que autores de renombre de todo el mundo han propuesto, considerado y debatido los objetivos de la educación básica y secundaria, entablando un diálogo constructivo sobre uno de los problemas más acuciantes que enfrenta la educación en la actualidad.
